Aspiring Bakers #24 ~ Jelly/Pudding ~ Sago Pudding

I used my late grandad's recipe for this sago pudding with gula melaka and santan

Yumms!

My late Grandad said:

bring a large pot of water to rapid boil

pour in your sago seeds

when they no longer has the white spot in the middle (around 8-10mins)

pour the mixture into a strainer

when the mixture is half way done,

stir in a tablespoon of thick salted coconut milk

mix well so that the sago seeds will not stick together

transfer to just-rinsed-with-cold-water mould

when cool enough, refridgerate till serving time

meanwhile:

heated up some water with the gula melaka blocks gently

stirring frequently to ensure no sticking to bottom of pot

and burning of the sugar mixture

turn off heat when the mixture is thick syrup state

next:

heat up 1 to 2 cups freshly squeezed coconut milk (or packaged coconut milk)

with a 1/2 to 1 tspn salt

turn off heat when bubbles appear and boil for a couple of mins

Serving:

scoop out the chilled sago from the mould into serving dishes

pour the melted palm sugar (gula melaka) on one side

and the coconut milk on the other

YUMMS!
