I begin my feasting with this classic and easy to make Steamed Tapioca pearls.
On its own, Kuih sago is flavourless, pandan leaf is added to enhance the flavour thus the aroma, and usually is cooked by boiling method.
Alternatively, rosewater is added.... it taste and smells heavenly of rose...just like biting into Turkish Delight :D.
A quick video to show you how it is done :D.
Enjoy the video and hope you have fun making kuih sago.
