There are two ways of enjoying sago pudding – one is baked in the oven and of a firm consistency and then there is the way I love it; all smooth and creamy – no guessing that this is yet another of my childhood favourites! You can also sprinkle a little ground cinnamon on top just before serving and no need to worry if you don’t have a microwave oven, you can just as easily make this in a saucepan.
