Mango Pearl Ball Sago Dew（芒果珍珠丸子西米露）

-



The weather is getting hotter and hotter. Make some cold desserts, store them in the fridge, and enjoy a bowl when you get home. That can be regarded as an enjoyable thing. Since it is mango season and there are many mangoes available right now, I thought of preparing Mango Pearl Ball Sago Dew（芒果珍珠丸子西米露）. It is a great dessert to beat the heat.

Mango pearl ball sago dew is a dessert made with mango, sago, and glutinous peal ball. It is now a favourite dessert among young people. The cool thing is you can do it yourself at home.

This recipe is very straightforward. Just need to pay attention when cooking the sago. The method is also very simple, and you don’t have to worry about the cost or to queue up to buy it. Delicious and affordable.

The sago is smooth and elastic, the small balls are soft and glutinous, the mango is sweet, and the milky aroma is added, it is ice-cold, one bite after another. . . can’t stop!

 

INGREDIENTS

2 medium size mangos

2 cups of orange juice 

100ml milk or coconut milk

100g sago

100g glutinous flour

50 ml warm water




METHODS

1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil on medium to high fire. Place sago in. Use a high fire to re-boil the liquid and then use a medium fire and keep the liquid boiling during the whole process. Give several stirs to make sure the pearls are not sticky to the bottom.

Cook for 10 minutes and cover the lid and let it stay for another 15 to 20 minutes. Check whether the pearls are completely transparent. In most cases, they should be well-cooked and transparent. If not, continue cooking on a high fire for several minutes until well cooked.

2. Put the cooked sago in a drain basin and rinse it several times with cold water to remove the starch, then soak it in iced water.

3. Peel and remove the core of the mango, cut into cube shapes, reserve one third for topping, and puree the rest together with the orange juice using a hand blender or a fruit blender.

4. Add a little water to the glutinous rice flour in a mixing bowl, stir with chopsticks or a rubber spatula a few times to produce flocs, and then use your hands to knead the mixture into a smooth dough. Divide the dough into small portions and roll it into small balls to the size of your liking.

5. Pour 2 cups of water into the pot, bring it to a boil, then put the glutinous rice balls into the pot, and give it a stir to prevent the rice balls from sticking to the bottom of the wok. Cook the rice balls until they begin to float to the top of the wok. Take out the rice balls and place them in cool water to soak.

6. Prepare 2 large bowls, divide the mango puree into the serving bowls, put in the reserved mangoes, the pearl balls, sago, and pour in milk. Enjoy

Steamed Ma Lai Gou （马来糕）

  Today I will share with you how to make Malay kuih also known as “Ma Lai Gao”.   A steamed sponge cake from Malaysia, drew inspiration from British cakes. Later, Cantonese chefs modified it to become what we now know as dim sum. Traditionally, Ma Lai Gao's starter dough takes 24 hours to prepare. I'll show you how to make Ma Lai Gao quickly and easily today without losing out on texture or flavour. In fact, the appearance of “Ma Lai Kou” is very ordinary, not much different from ordinary cakes on the market, but its preparation method and texture are worth learning from. Because it is a fermented flour product, it has a soft and smooth texture. This recipe doesn't require baking, and the preparation of “Ma Lai Gao” is very simple, and the ingredients are divided into dry and wet. The wet ones are milk and eggs, while the dry ones are powdered ingredients. To put it simply, stir the wet ingredients evenly first, then slowly add the dry ingredients, ferment and then s...

Baked Cassava or Tapioca Cake （烤木薯糕）

Cassava or tapioca cake can be prepared in several methods, including baking, steaming and wrapping in banana leaves. It can be made with or without eggs and with or without butter. Today, I am going to share how to bake cassava or tapioca cake. Tapioca cake is very easy to make, whether to steam or to bake. The only tedious part is grating. I used to grate them into fine silk manually. But now I blend them with Thermomix to paste form. If you are using a regular blender, add a little water to the blender to blend it together. This cassava cake has a beautiful burnt skin on top and dense golden color inside. My daughter thought it was burnt cheesecake. The texture is soft but firm and not too sticky compared to the steam type. Every bite taste of cassava, coconut milk and the burnt aroma. Not overly sweet and greasy. If using a blender, cut the tapioca into smaller chunks, then carefully cut out the tough, fibrous core from the middle of each piece using a knife.   Once the t...

Dong Po Rou （东坡肉）

Dong Po Rou （东坡肉） – wine braised pork belly. It’s rich and savoury, tender that melts into your mouth. Traditionally, the pork belly is pan-fried before being braised or stewed for one to one and a half hours on low heat. Some of the recipes even call for steaming for an additional half an hour after stewing. It is very time-consuming. But as you are aware, I enjoy making recipes simpler without compromising the taste. You, too, I'm sure. Therefore, I skipped the pan-frying step and proceeded directly to braising the pork after blanching it, and then continued to cook with a pressure cooker. Don't worry; the dish's flavour remains unaffected. I'm hoping this simplified method may come in handy for your regular cooking. Trim off the edges of the pork and cut it into 3x3 cubes. Tie cooking twine around each cube. This will assist the cubes in keeping their form while cooking. If the pork that you bought is at the mid portion of the belly is ideal, there is a nice bala...
