How to Make Passionfruit And Orange Sago

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup fresh orange juice, 1/2 cup passionfruit pulp (about 3-4 passionfruits), 1 cup water, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar. Stir well to dissolve the sugar.
  2. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent sticking.
  3. Add 1/2 cup small sago pearls. Reduce heat to low, and continue stirring constantly until the mixture thickens slightly.
  4. Continue cooking for 20 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sago pearls are translucent and cooked through. The mixture should thicken considerably.
  5. Remove from heat and pour the sago mixture into a bowl. Let it cool completely to room temperature before covering and refrigerating for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the sago to fully soften.
  6. Serve chilled. Garnish with extra passionfruit pulp or a sprig of mint, if desired.
