  1. Preheat the oven to 160C.

  3. Add the caster sugar, cinnamon and cardamom, and a pinch of nutmeg.

  4. While the milk is heating up, stir continuously, until the sago becomes transparent.

  5. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly, and remove the whole spices.

  6. Add a little of the warm sago milk to the eggs to warm up the egg mixture, then add all the egg mixture to the sago.

  7. Pour the mixture into a greased oven dish and bake for 40 to 55 minutes, until the topping is slightly golden in color and pudding is set.

  8. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with a little cinnamon.

  9. Serve with custard warm or cold.
