Boil the sago
15 minBoil the sago pearls in simmering water, checking constantly, for 15 minutes until the centres turn translucent.
Yang zhi gan lu is a refreshing cold Chinese dessert made by boiling sago pearls and mixing them with mango purée and coconut milk. Watching the sago pearls closely until they reach just the right texture is a tricky balance — neither doughy nor still glassy in the centre. Because stevia replaces regular sweetener, it can also be made safely for anyone looking for a diabetes-friendly dessert.
Boil the sago pearls in simmering water, checking constantly, for 15 minutes until the centres turn translucent.
Drain the boiled sago and immediately transfer it to cold water to stop it from sticking together.
Mix the mango purée with the coconut milk and stevia, then add the drained sago.
Garnish the dessert with pomelo segments and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour before serving.
If you don't watch the sago pearls closely, their centres can stay glassy and hard or overcook into a doughy mush — check them constantly.
Adding a few extra pomelo segments on top gives the dessert the slightly bitter-sweet note typical of Chinese cooking.
Admin DadaGastro · verified in test kitchenSagoyu haşladıktan hemen sonra tarifte belirtildiği gibi soğuk suya almadım, taneler birbirine sıkıca yapışıp topaklaştı ve mango karışımına hiçbir şekilde düzgün karışmadı. Bu adımı bir daha asla atlamayacağım.
Sago tanelerini tarifte açıkça uyarıldığı gibi sürekli kontrol etmek yerine bir süreliğine tamamen unuttum, merkezleri fazla haşlanıp tamamen hamurlaştı, bir dahaki sefere ocağın başından hiç ayrılmayacağım.
Sago haşlarken göz açıp kapayana kadar merkez hamurlaşabilir, bu yüzden son 5 dakikada tane arayla kontrol etmek en güvenli yoldur.
