sweet treats-sago pudding!

here is one of my favourite traditional (is it?) dessert of all time!! =)
sago pudding! yummy!
simple yet sinfully rich and delightful
I've always been fascinated by sago. how they look so pretty like little pearls.
and their soft chewy texture is just mmm-mm. ok, i'm exxagerating a little ;p

some simple instructions on how to make this.
you need:
sago
gula melaka
coconut milk
mould

first boil a pot of water. then add the sago and cook until the sago becomes translucent.
drain excess water and let the sago cool down. it should be transparent now.
then scoop the sago into moulds (can use the ones for making "lo mai kai" or whatever) or put it in a dessert cup.
let in cool in the refrigerator.
meanwhile, grate/chop the gula melaka into small pieces and melt it over a double boiler (heat a wok of water over the stove and place a smaller pot over the water with the gula melaka)
to assemble, unmoluld the sago on a plate, drizzle desired amount of gula melaka and coconut milk over.

my masterpiece!

yup its fattening but its okay to indulge once in awhile =D
