This recipe of chilled sago coconut milk is a combination of two recipes from my blog, ‘Mango Sago & Pomelo Dessert‘ and ‘Pearl Sago Pudding Is My Yummy Virgin Dessert‘. The dessert is actually not too sweet, so very nice to munch into with its chewy texture and chilled temperature – makes for a really good dessert to have on a hot sunny day too!

What’s the difference between a salmon and a salmon trout? The former is a salmon, which is generally larger in size, oilier and richer, while a salmon trout is a trout, and trouts are usually smaller, milder and not so oily compared to salmons. They are therefore slightly cheaper as well. On occasions when you can’t find salmons (which is rarely the case actually), you can get salmon trouts as a good substitute for recipes, especially those recipes require pan-frying or baking.
