Recipe: Baked Sago Pudding

Written on May 10, 2009 – 9:30 pm | by Glass Pearl |

With the weather becoming decidedly colder and a cold front expected in Cape Town this week, a warm winter pudding always works very well in my home.

This recipe is quick and easy to make either for Sunday lunch dessert or a quick pudding after work.

      Hi Abigail,

      After craving mum’s sago pudding I asked my wife to do a search for an easy recipe and we were directed to your website.

      My wife ended up trying the recipe and it came close (to mum’s) but no cigar. However, since mum’s on the other side of the world, your recipe will be getting a regular workout. Besides, maybe with a bit of practice my wife can produce a replica of mum’s perfect pudding.

      Thanks for posting the recipe.

      God Bless The (Sago)Chefs

      Looked everywhere to find a sago pud recipe with eggs in it, always thought that was the proper way, but so glad I eventually find yours.

      Thanks

      Thank you for publishing this recipe. I can’t find sago in the country I am in at the moment, so bought a packet on my recent trip home to SA. I can’t wait to try out your recipe, as it sounds very much like the way my Mom used to make sago pudding.
