What is the recipe for Sai Mai Lo(Sago/Tapioca pearls dessert)?!
Thank You and Salamat Po!
Answers: Ever since I've eaten that dessert, I've been craving it. So could anyone tell me what the recipe is and what other fruit I can add to it instead of Taro?
Thank You and Salamat Po!
You can use mango or honeydew instead of taro. Here's a recipe for the pudding using mango:
1 1/2 cups sago (colored or plain)
2/3 cup evaporated milk
3 cups water
1/4 cup sugar
6 tablespoons coconut cream or thick coconut milk
1/4 cup mango nectar or mango juice
1/2 cup chopped mangoes
Bring water to a boil, add sago and simmer for 15 minutes.
Stir in sugar, mango nectar, evaporated milk and coconut cream.
Simmer for another 10 minutes, stirring once in a while to prevent sago and milk from burning.
Simmer until liquid has almost evaporated.
While still hot, stir in mangoes and scoop about 1/2 cup of the mixture into serving glasses/bowls and let cool.
If you like you can puree the mixture slightly with a blender or stick-blender before scooping into individual bowls.
Chill for several hours before serving, and serve with extra chopped mango if desired.
Or, use lemon juice and rind like in this recipe:
1 cup Sago or pearl tapioca
1 cup Milk, plus
3 cups Milk
5 Egg yolks
1/2 lemon, juice and grated rind
1/2 lemon, rind only, grated
3/4 cup Sugar
5 Egg whites
Soak sago overnight in 1 cup milk. Add to 3 cups milk and cook 3 hours in the top of a double boiler, over ~not in- boiling water. Preheat oven to 375.
Beat yolks with lemon rind, juice and sugar. Add to cooked mixture. Beat egg whites til stiff but not dry. Layer pudding and meringue mixture in a casserole, starting with sago and ending with meringue.
Bake 15 minutes. Serve hot or cold. With or without a sauce. Hot fruit sauce suggested.
