Aval Payasam/Poha Kheer


For the day 2 of Blogging Marathon #43,I am sharing aval payasam for the festive themes.I have already shared a version with coconut milk and jaggery here.But today's version is using milk and sugar which we make quite often for poojas.Usually my mom makes it very simple but here I added cashew paste for extra rich taste.Lets move on to the recipe..............................

   Cooking time 25 minutes
   Serves 2
    

  
 Ingredients

a pinch
Cashews/mundiri(broken)
2+1 tbs
1 tbs

  Method 
  • Soak 1 tbs of broken cashews in 1/4 cup of milk for 10 minutes and grind it to a fine paste.Heat around 2 tsp of ghee and roast the rice flakes till it becomes crisp and remove it.In the same pan add the remaining ghee and fry the cashews to a golden color.
  • Boil the milk in a pan and let it simmer for 5 minutes then add the roasted aval/rice flakes.Allow it to cook,once the rice flakes is cooked add in the sugar and let it boil for another 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the ground cashew paste and allow it to cook for one boil.Finally add the cardamom powder and fried cashews and boil it for a minute,put off the flame.
  • Aval Payasam is ready.




Enjoy..............................


  • The consistency of the payasam becomes thick after cooling.
  • Here I used 1/3 cup of sugar which was little bit more but if you want milder sweet use around 1/4 cup and tsp.
  • Instead of cashew paste,condensed milk(1/4 cup) can be used,in that case don't add any sugar.
  • Saffron can be added for extra flavor.
