Milk-5 cups(8oz=1cup)
Sugar-1/2cup
Cardamom-8 pods
Payasam rice-1/2 cup(can use basmati also)
Water-1 cup
Ghee-1 tblspn
Raisins-12
Cashew halves-8
Directions:-
- Soak rice in water for half an hr. Then crush them with hands to break into halves or tiny.
- Now cook them with 1 cup of water. They should be cooked enough so that they are ready to eat. If you are using more water to cook drain them out when they a done cooking. Keep this aside.
- Now boil the milk with sugar and cardamom split open. I use the shell as such since it too adds flavor. And traditionally it is done so.
- Once the milk boils simmer it for 20 min or more until it thickens up like a custard and when u bring them in between fingers they are found sticky. By now the milk would have reduced by quantity. Keep stirring at this stage to prevent sticking from the bottom of the pan.
- Now take off from stove and add rice to this.
- Now for garnishing heat ghee in a pan and fry raisins and cashews till amber.
- Pour them on top of payasam while serving.
- Done.
ENJOY YOUR MEAL:)
