Creating Mango Sago is easier than you might think! Just follow these simple steps:

1. Cook Sago Pearls: In a pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add sago pearls and stir gently. Cook for about 10-15 minutes until the pearls are translucent.
2. Drain Sago: Once cooked, drain the sago pearls and rinse under cold water to remove excess starch. Set aside.
3. Prepare Coconut Mixture: In a bowl, combine coconut milk, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract (if using). Mix until the sugar dissolves completely.
4. Combine: Add the rinsed sago pearls to the coconut mixture, stirring well to combine.
5. Prepare Mango: Peel and dice the ripe mangoes. Reserve some pieces for garnish if desired.
6. Assemble: In serving bowls, layer the sago mixture followed by the diced mangoes. You can alternate layers for a visually appealing presentation.
7. Chill: Place the assembled Mango Sago in the refrigerator and chill for at least 1-2 hours before serving.
8. Garnish: Before serving, top with extra mango pieces and a drizzle of coconut milk for aesthetic appeal.
