Serve and enjoy it hot or cold.

Notes:

I boiled banana separately, so it won't give a sour taste to the sweets.

You may add Jack fruit/ langka if available

I cooked sago separately,
Soaked in water for 10 Min.
Boil some water, add in sago. Stir Continuously. Cook till soft.
drain, and wash with cold water.
