Banana, Melon and Sago Malamig By GERLIE M. UY Revisit our Banana cake , Melon smoothie and try our quick and easy cooler Sago Malamig! I prepared banana cake sans the peanuts in our archive recipe and I reduced the sugar by 30% and doubled the recipe. For Melon Smoothie, I blender the melon sans the watermelon in our original recipe, and in lieu of the yogurt, I used all purpose cream. In other times, an evaporated milk may be used. Now, for Sago Malamig, boil a multi-colored 100g sago pearls until cooked without white in the center. Put in the freezer. In a liiter cold water, add mascuvado sugar untl desired sweetness and shake until dissolved and freeze. In a tall glass, put three tablespoons of sago, add the mascuvado juice and top with ice. There, the cooler is for gulping. copyright to photos reverts to owners
