Mango Sago Pudding

A Thai style easy peasy, luscious and creamy Sago pudding enriched with mangoes and coconut milk.This eggless pudding is a great summer dessert!

Life has been really hectic since the last fortnight with the Husbands nite preparation in full swing. We Navy wives put up a evening full of fun and entertainment as a gesture of love for our gallant men in uniform who are out sailing most of the times or on detachments performing their duty of guarding our nation.With the theme being ” The Great Indian Mela” we have been working on the decor, food, games and the entertainment part of the show since the last few days mindlessly.

Though blogging has taken a back seat with other things in mind,I have been regular with our theme blogging with the Foodie Monday Bloghop group.With the Chaitra Navratri going on ,most of the people are observing the nine days fast and festivity worshipping Goddess Durga. The fast is an intrinsic part of this Hindu festival. Though our generation has retained the custom of keeping fasts but have molded the Navratri menu to suit their taste buds. The blogosphere is overflowing with recipes of Vrat(fast) ke namkeen, Vrat ke chaat etc

This week the Bloghop theme being Navratri Recipes, I made my favourite Mango Sago dessert which is made with Mangoes, Sabudana or Tapioca pearls, Coconut milk and Condensed milk. An Asian dessert by origin this mild, refreshing pudding is a part of Vrat recipes because of its ingredients. This dessert goes to the 35th Foodie Monday BlogHop with the theme Navratri Special. Enjoy your fasting days with this chilled delicious Easy peasy Mango Sago.

Ingredients

• 3/4 Cup Sago / Tapioca Sabudana pearls

Instructions

1. Soak the Sago pearls in water for 30 minutes and add water just to cover the sago for it to soak, otherwise it becomes gooey and mushy while cooking because of the starch in the sago.
2. Now cook the sago in 2-3 cups of boiling water for 10 minutes or till the pearls look translucent.Switch off the flame and cover it for 10 minutes.
3. Drain the excess water and wash the cooked sago in a strainer under cold water,that way the excess starch gets washed away and you are left with translucent,blossomed pearls.Store in the fridge till use.
4. In a mixer jar take the mango purxe9e,sweet condensed milk,coconut milk and the cardamom powder ,grind to a smooth paste.
5. Add the chilled Sago pearls to the paste leaving a little for garnish and mix gently.
6. Pour in small bowls or glasses and chill covered with a cling film for 4-5 hours.
7. Serve garnished with chopped mango, few sago pearls and mint leaves.

Recipe Notes

A few things to keep in mind while making this....adjust the Sweet condensed milk according to your taste of sweetness and the sweetness of the mangoes used. Instead of Condensed milk, reduced milk and sugar can be added.Some people don't like the taste of coconut milk, Almond milk or full fat milk at room temperature can be used in lieu of that.
