Grated Coconut Pearl Sago Cake

---

This cake is inspired by a traditional cake which is often known as sengkulun sago pearl. Sengkulun is a delicious snack made with grated coconut. So, to modify the original recipe, let's make a version wrapped in leaves.

The first time I made this recipe, I was a little confused, whether it would be delicious or not. However, since I make things with shredded coconut so often, I thought this would not disappoint. I combined pearl sago seeds with grated coconut. Pearl sago seeds have a chewy texture so when combined with grated coconut they will have a delicious taste. Here, to increase the fragrant aroma, I added pieces of pandan leaves to the cake package. For the wrapping I used banana leaves, if you don't have them you can replace them by replacing them in a cake mold. Just imagining it makes me even more convinced that this will be very tasty and the taste will definitely be spectacular.

Sengkulun sago pearl with grated coconut is ready to be enjoyed, served while warm will be very delicious. The aroma and taste combine perfectly, the sweetness combines well with the aroma of pandan leaves. What was surprising was that I really liked the taste of sago, but when it was combined with coconut it became one.

Well, a little tip for you, I highly recommend you to boil the sago pearls first. This will save time during the steaming process, pearl sago will become soft quickly when boiled, but when you have boiled the sago, drain it so that there is no remaining boiling water. In my opinion, the method of boiling sago will be more optimal and will definitely save you time.

For those of you who like sweet snacks, the delicious taste of coconut with the distinctive aroma of this cake. Try making this, it will be very suitable at home later!
