- Prepare the sauce by mixing fish sauce, chili paste, lime juice, minced garlic, and chopped spring onions in a bowl.
- In a separate pan, sauté shrimp in a little oil until pink, then add chicken broth and simmer for 3 minutes.
- Transfer the cooked sago to serving bowls, top with the shrimp and broth mixture.
- Serve with the prepared sauce on the side for dipping; twirl the sago with a bamboo fork and dip into the sauce before eating.
