Emirati budding -Sago

Sago is one of the often dessert, that GCC country tends to do. It is "a starchy foodstuff derived from the soft interior of the trunk of various palms and cycads, used in making puddings" (Sago, n.d.). As the history of the GCC country cuisine especially the United Arab Emirates, this dessert is originated from India and Southeast Asia. The uniqueness of the dish or to make it more Emirati is with the addition of their adorable flavour like saffron and rose water and some nuts to add crispness to the dessert. This dish allowed you to try a new flavour of budding which is specialised by emirates gentlemen and their ladies. This recipe is eaten either hot or cold, and it is still going to be the same flavour and by gourmet choice. Enjoy the recipe.
