This sago pudding from Chinese-ish comes together incredibly quickly. It's mostly just a case of mixing sweet mango purée into cooked sago pearls and drizzling with coconut milk. It's a very refreshing, summery pudding and one of the quintessential flavours of Hong Kong.

Place the mango, evaporated milk and 80ml water in a food processor and blitz into a puree. At this point, taste for sweetness. If the mango is lovely and sweet, don’t add any additional sugar. Otherwise, add the caster sugar and blitz once more in the food processor, until the sugar has completely dissolved
To assemble, stir the sago and mango puree together to combine. Divide between two chilled serving bowls and drizzle with the coconut milk. Garnish with the extra diced mango and plenty of pomelo pulp
