4. Now switch on the flame and stir frequently.
5. Stir and cook under the very high flame until it turns to cake batter consistency as shown in the picture below. For me, it takes about an hour.
6. Add ¾ of thick coconut milk and stir under the very high flame until it again turns to cake batter consistency. For me, it takes about 30 minutes.
7. Now add the rest of the thick coconut milk and crushed roasted mung bean.
8. Stir and cook under the high flame until the batter turns a bit thick and produces oil around the batter as shown in the picture below. For me, it takes about 20 minutes.
9. Now, add the sago and cook under medium flame for 5 minutes. Stir frequently.
10. Using a spoon, take off the excess oil.
11. Then pour the thick oily dodol batter into a flat tray and spread it evenly as shown in the picture below. Once it comes to room temperature cut into pieces.
