Sago Pudding (Gula Melaka)

By: bentwookie 
"Gula Melaka is the sugar from a coconut tree. Combined with coconut milk and poured over a sago pearl pudding, make this dessert a true delight. If palm sugar is hard to find, molasses may be substituted."

Original Recipe Yield 10 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 10 cups water
  • 7 ounces pearl sago, rinsed and drained
  • 7 ounces palm sugar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 cups canned coconut milk

Directions

  1. Bring 10 cups of water to a boil in a large pot. Gradually stir in the sago so that it does not clump. Return to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cook until the sago turns translucent, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes. Pour the sago into jelly molds, and refrigerate overnight.
  2. In a small saucepan, stir together the palm sugar and water. Bring to a boil, and cook until the sugar has dissolved. Strain through a fine sieve to remove grit.
  3. Unmold the puddings, and serve with the coconut milk and palm sugar syrup (gula melaka) separately for each person to pour over their serving.
