These few months will be super duper warm over in Dubai. So was inspired to make tong shui that are cooling. I hate ulcers... hopefully, will go away soon! Arrggghh...
I don't like the soup to be sticky due to the sago pearls, so I par boil them & add them into the soup when green beans are about done. :)
Thanks to a member of KC who taught us to boil the sago 1st, when mostly are done, turn off the heat & cover pot to let the sago "cooked" further. Indeed, this method is good! :)
