  • Refrigerator
  • Measuring Cups

Method
 

  1. Boil water in a pot and cook sago pearls, stirring occasionally until they turn mostly translucent with a slight center.
  2. Strain and rinse cooked sago under cold water to remove excess starch and prevent sticking.
  3. Blend fresh strawberries with milk and sweetener until smooth and creamy.
  4. Combine sago pearls with strawberry mixture in a bowl, stirring gently for even distribution.
  5. Chill in the refrigerator until cold and slightly thickened for best texture.
  6. Serve chilled, ensuring a creamy consistency with evenly suspended pearls.

Notes

Cook sago until soft but not mushy for the best chewy texture. Rinse well to avoid clumping. Chill before serving for a refreshing consistency. Adjust sweetness or add coconut milk for variation. Store in the refrigerator for up to two days and stir before serving.
