SWEET POTATOES WITH SAGO DESSERT

I learned a new way of preparing this sweet potato sago sweet dessert.  For this recipe the sago pearls are boiled to almost transparent before adding the sweet potatoes to cook.
The dessert soup is smooth and the pearl sago are not visible especially with the purple sweet potatoes where the colour darkens the soup.
Ingredients
[makes 4-5 bowls]
1 medium size orange sweet potato - peeled, cut chunky pieces
1 medium size purple sweet potato - peeled, cut chunky pieces
3 tbsp sago - rinsed and drained
800 ml water
60 gm jaggery sugar or brown sugar

  1. Bring water to boil in a pot.  Stir in the sago.  Stir constantly to prevent sticking together.
  2. When sago is almost transparent, add in the sweet potatoes to cook.
  3. Bring to boil and simmer until sweet potatoes are soft.  Add in sugar to taste.
  4. Serve warm or hot.
