Sago Pudding with Mango Puree
芒果西米布丁


I wanted to do Sago with Gula Malaka but I couldn't find the essential Gula Malaka, so I substitute it with Mango instead. As you can see, I didn't do a good job cooking the sago. Still have bits of white dots here and there. Hai ya! The results of being impatient! I'll be better with my Gula Malaka version!

Ingredients:
  • 50g Small Sago (makes about 3)
  • 1 Mango, skinned and stoned

How to do it:
  1. Wash sago and drain.
  2. In a pot, boil about a litre of water.
  3. Add in sago gradually. Stir occasionally to prevent the sago from sticking together.
  4. When the water starts to boil, turn down the fire.
  5. Continue to stir occasionally.
  6. It's done when all sago turn translucent. (obviously mine's not quite done)
  7. Drain the sago using a sieve.
  8. Run the sago in water to clear the starch or you can use a pot of water.
  9. Drain the sago again using a sieve.
  10. Put the sago into moulds.
  11. Refrigerate overnight.
  12. Blend 2/3 mango till it become puree. If your mango is sour, you can add some fine sugar to blend together.
  13. Chop the remaining into cubes.
  14. Refrigerate.
  15. Remove sago pudding from mould using toothpick or knife.
  16. Pour the mango puree over the sago pudding and top with chopped mango.
  17. Serve.

Stir Fried Prawns with Dark Sauce
干煎虾碌


I have totally forgotten about this dish I wokked this last week. We love it though I feel it's a waste to wok fresh prawns this way. Yeah, they was still swimming when I bought they home.

Ingredients:
  • 12 medium-large tiger prawns
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 2 tablespoon dark soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
How to do it:
  1. Heat oil in wok.
  2. Saute prawns till they turn red on both sides.
  3. Add in the dark soy sauce and sugar.
  4. Cook till the prawns are done. The liquid in the wok should be now left slightly less then half and thicken too.
  5. Dish and serve with rice.
Note:
You can saute minced garlic first before adding the prawns. I didn't because the prawns I used it really fresh. Add in some cut chilli padi if you want it spicy.
