Ingredients:
-
3 ripe mangoes
-
1 can condensed milk (370 ml)
-
1 can evaporated milk (370 ml)
-
1 all-purpose cream (optional for extra creaminess)
-
1 jar nata de coco (coconut gel)
-
1 cup small sago cooked (white/clear tapioca pearls)
-
25g mango-flavored gelatin powder
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Mangoes:
Peel and chop the ripe mangoes into small cubes. Set aside the cubes for later. -
Cook the Sago:
If you haven't already cooked the small sago, do so by boiling it in water for about 10-15 minutes until translucent. Drain and set aside. -
Prepare the Mango Gelatin:
In a bowl, mix the mango-flavored gelatin powder with hot water according to the package instructions. Stir until fully dissolved and set it aside to cool. Once set, cut the gelatin into small cubes. -
Combine the Milks and Cream:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the condensed milk, evaporated milk, and all-purpose cream (if using). Stir well to combine into a creamy base. -
Mix the Ingredients:
Add the chopped mangoes, cooked sago, nata de coco, and mango gelatin cubes into the milk mixture. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients, making sure the fruit and gelatin are evenly distributed. -
Chill the Dessert:
Refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to chill. The tapioca will absorb the creamy flavors, making it even more delicious. -
Serve:
Once chilled, serve the mango tapioca in small bowls or glasses. You can garnish with additional mango cubes or a drizzle of condensed milk for extra sweetness.
Tips on Energy-Efficient Appliances:
To save energy while preparing this dish, use a small pot to cook the sago instead of a large pot, which will heat up more quickly. You can also use a refrigerator that is energy-efficient to chill the dessert faster and reduce energy consumption.
