Sago Gula Melaka image

A popular dessert in Malaysia where I first came across it. It may sound a little strange but tastes really good. A great dessert for a Malaysian or Asian themed dinner party. I got this recipe from a cooking magazine I bought in....Malaysia!!

250 ml thick coconut milk

  • Palm sugar is dark brown and crumbly-- also known as jaggery or gur-- it is made from the reduced sap of either the sugar palm or the palmyra palm.
  • Try to find the real stuff as you can't really substitute.
  • Pearl sago is a starch extracted from the sago and other tropical palms which is similar to tapico.
  • When it's cooked it looks like little translucent balls.
