Hi soak it in some water say overnight then add milk and bake in oven proof dish untill top just shows some colour also stir a few times when cooking first. It softens and expands with the soaking also a bit of sugar to suit your taste, a while since i have had it but thats about it. The larger one Tapioca is also good i prefer it to sago- not sure if spelling is correct !

Caramel sago - Microwave
Rub a little butter around rim of a microwave proof dish (to help stop it boiling over)
add 2 C milk and 1/4 C sago. Stir, Microwave for 12-15 mins stirring every 2-3 mins, till sago is clear. Then quickly stir in 1 egg, 1 tspn vanilla, 1/4 C brown sugar. Heat will cook the egg and melt the brown sugar. Watch this as you are cooking it as it will boil over towards the end of the cooking time.
This is really lovely. as a quick fix for a sweet treat
