Sago falls into the “high-carb” and “high-calorie” category because it is high in calories.

Lightly fry them first
Heat oil in a pan for frying. Add 3 to 4 tablespoons of sago to the oil and when the sago goes into the hot oil, they will start to puff up. Keep turning them until they cook completely.
Sabudana should be fried well. Sabudana will start to look crispy and ripe on the outside, but don’t get hard on the inside, watch out for this.
You can also try chewing some grains. If you feel that they are not cooked in the middle, let them cook for a little more time.
Put raw peanuts in ghee for frying in the same way. Roast the peanuts well until they turn golden brown and crispy. Similarly prepare cashews and raisins by roasting them.
When the dry fruits are fried and golden, take them out on a paper napkin.
When the sago mixture has cooled, put all the fried ingredients in a jar. Sprinkle salt, icing sugar and black pepper powder.
Close the jar tightly and shake to mix. So spices can be mixed with sago and dry fruits.
