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..............................




Aval Payasam/Poha Kheer


  Basic Information

   Preparation time 5 minutes
   Cooking time 25 minutes
   Serves 2
    

  
 Ingredients
Ingredient
Quantity
Rice flakes/aval(thick)
1/2 cup
Milk
21/2 cups
Sugar/sakkarai
1/4-1/3 cup
Cardamom powder/ellakai
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.

Paasiparuppu Dosa/Yellow Moong Dhal Dosa

For the 5th day under instant dosa varieties in Cooking Carnival is a protein rich dosa with moong dhal. This dosa can be called as vegetarian omlette as the taste resembles egg omlette.This dosa can be spread into a thin crepe or like uthappam/pancake.Either way it tastes good. The dhal gets soaked in less than an hour,once the batter is ready the dosa can be made.Grated veggies or some greens can be added to make it more healthy. Today I used,chopped onion and coriander leaves.Spicy tomato chutney or coriander chutney pairs very well with this dosa.Lets move on to the recipe............                                                                                                    ...

Rava Kozhukattai/Rava Pidi kozhukattai

For the alphabet R,I decided to make something with rava aka semolina.But I have blogged most of the  rava recipes  in Tamil cuisine. When I was going through the cook books and hand written recipes,rava kozhukattai caught my attention. The method of making this kozhukattai is same as  upma kozhukattai ,whereas rava/semolina is used instead of rice.Both sweet and savory versions can be made with semolina.As we had lot of sweet dishes in the previous week I made the savory version.Soon share the sweet version.This is a great option for evening snack and I served with coconut chutney.Lets move on to the  recipe............                                                                                          ...
