Ingredience
- 8 cups water
- 1 cup sago pearls*

- 1 1/2 cups coconut milk
Postup
Method
Bring water to boil in a medium non-stick pot, then rain the sago pearls in, stir with a wooden spoon, before allowing the sago to bubble away. The sago pearls are ready when they turn completely transparent – don’t be too concerned if you can still see the slightest dot of white at the centre of each pearl, it will be adequately cooked. Remove pot from heat and tip the contents into a sieve. Standing over the sink, run lots of cool water through the pearls to remove residual starch, then using a metal spoon, fold the pandan paste through the mixture. Divide sago into 4 moulds – jelly or disposable plastic cups, anything that flexes a little is good. Cover with clingwrap and refrigerate.
Meanwhile, in a small pot, bring coconut milk to boil. Cool to room temperature.
Using the same pot, unwashed, combine the gula melaka and water. Bring to boil and then refrigerate.
To serve, ease moulded sago into 4 small bowls, pour about 1/4 - 1/3 cup of the milk into each bowl (up to you), with a heaped dessert spoon of the gula melaka (or to taste) drizzled over each bowl.
