3 In a large bowl add the sago, almond milk, coconut sugar, vanilla, cardamom and coconut cream and mix until combined.
4 Add the the food colouring and mix, fold in some of the mangoes. Depending on the consistency, if you like a thin consistency add more milk if you like a more creamy consistency add less milk.
5 Divide the sago pudding into the base of each glass, top with some chopped mangoes, passion fruit pulp and pistachios.
6 Keep in the fridge to set and cool, serve when ready.
