I was in loved with this Malaysian dessert when I first had it in Malaysia many moons ago. I had no idea this dessert was actually so easy to make as I thought it would be difficult to produce this dessert at home. I suddenly had a craving for this sago kuih again and went on Google to look for how it was made. To my utter surprised, it was fairly easy to make and since I have all the ingredients in my pantry, I set up to give this a try! I would try other flavor next time or other recipe for a different texture? This one is chewy.
I steamed it in my old-time electric steamer and to my total dismay, my 10+ years steamer broke down in the middle of steaming!!! What a timing for broken down. So, I had to cover it with foil and finished steaming it in my wok on the stove top. Today was not a good day for me, one obstacle after another kept on happening to me on the same day! I wanted to go to the bank to have some document notarize and found out I forgot my cellphone which had my ID card at home ( thus I had to drive home to get it), then I went to the bank they told me they charged $5 for cashier checks (so I had to go to Walmart), went to Walmart and realized they only took cash or debit card for money order (I didn't have either one so had to drive home), then got a call from school to tell me to come pick up my younger girl because she was not feeling well and had fever (So, had to drive to school), then my steamer broke down half way through steaming (and I had to find alternative way to finish steaming my kuih, I prepared this in the morning before I got a call from the school, supposed to bring it to my friend's house at night.) and because of my girl not feeling well, I had to cancel the plan to have dinner at my friend's house! :-( Whoa, I didn't expect all these to happen when I had all plan up nicely the night before. Seriously, life is so unpredictable!
