Sabudana is tapioca. This is a yummy & delicious recipe eaten in Maharashtra:
Sabudana khichdi
Ingredients
2 cup sabudana (tapioca),
1 potato,
3-4 green chilies,
1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional),
1 small piece ginger (optional),
1/2 cup peanut powder,
2-3 teaspoon sugar,
salt to taste,
1 tbspoon oil,
2 teaspoon cumin seeds,
coconut and coriander leaves for garnishing.
Method
1. Soak sabudana in water. Drain the water and keep it aside for half an hour to one hour (Depending on the quality, sometimes the sabudana needs to be soaked overnight in a little bit of water).
2. Now add peanut powder, salt, sugar and lemon juice and mix.
3. Cut green chilies into small pieces and grate ginger.
4. Heat oil or ghee in a pan.
6. Add cumin seeds, potato pieces and chilies.
7. As soon as potatoes are tender, add sabudana and stir.
8. Cook uncovered for sometime and keep mixing so that sabudana will not stick to the bottom.
9. Garnish with coconut and coriander leaves. Serve hot.
Tip: As mentioned above in step 2, add all the ingredients to the soaked sabudana before cooking.
While making khichdi, do not cover the pan, else it will turn into an elastic ball. Khichdi tastes excellent if tossed continuously while cooking.

Sabudana -- Sago/Tapioca.......................Sago---is a powdery starch made from the processed pith found inside the trunks of the Sago Palm Metroxylon sagu. Sago forms a major staple food for the lowland peoples of New Guinea and the Moluccas.
Processed starch known as sago is also made from some cycad plants, and is a less frequent food source for some peoples of the Pacific and Indian Oceans. There is a large difference both biologically and dietarily between the two types of sago.
