Very traditional, very comforting! Rather don't use tapioca, which is similar but has much larger "beads" or grains. Tapioca would need soaking overnight.

Time 1h15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cups milk
1 cup sago
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg or 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup sugar
5 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 eggs
5 tablespoons apricot jam
1/2 cup sugar (extra)

Steps:

  • Oven: 325 deg F/160 deg Celsius.
  • Grease a large pudding dish lightly.
  • Heat milk to nearly boiling, then add sago, salt, and nutmeg or cinnamon.
  • Simmer over very low heat until sago is transparent.
  • Add the 1/2 cup sugar, butter and vanilla, and stir in well. Remove from heat.
  • Separate the eggs, and whisk the yolks. Add yolks to the sago mixture, whisk or mix through well, and pour the mixture into the prepared oven dish.
  • Put blobs of the apricot jam all over the pudding mixture.
  • Whisk the egg whites until stiff, and add the extra 1/2 cup sugar slowly, whisking until incorporated.
  • Spread this meringue over the sago pudding.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 40 - 45 minutes, until set, and the meringue is light brown on top.
  • Serve hot, warm or cold.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pudding turned out runny. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This is the worst pudding I've ever had. It was bland and tasteless.
