Ingredients:

• 1 cup pearl sago
• ½ cup potato (diced into small pieces)
• ½ cup tomatoes (finely chopped)
• ¼ tbsp green chilies (finely chopped)
• ¼ cup peanuts (roughly chopped)
• 4-5 curry leaves
• 2 tbsp cilantro leaves (fresh and chopped)
• 1 tsp mustard seeds
• 1 ½ tbsp pepper
• salt to taste
• vegetable oil to cook
• water as required

Directions:

• Wash pearl sago thoroughly under clear running water. Leave it overnight in a covered bowl. Sago pearls will absorb moisture from the residual water to turn fluffy in the morning.
• This is how it should look in the morning:

• Heat 2-3 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a wok. Drop mustard seeds in it.
• Add curry leaves, peanuts, and green chilies to the oil and sauté for a few seconds.
• Next, add potatoes and sauté until they turn soft.
• When the potatoes are done, add tomatoes, salt, and pepper to the wok. Let it cook for about 10 minutes.
• Add the damp sago pearls and cook for another 5 minutes. Turn the heat off and garnish with chopped cilantro leaves.

Your pearl sago porridge is ready. Bon appetit!
