Beetroot Payasam /Beetroot Kheer



Carrot kheer is one such favorite dessert in my household and my kiddo loves it a lot.When I wanted to make dessert with beetroot the first thing came in my mind was beetroot halwa.But when I made long time back it didn't come out good and nobody liked it.So decided to do something different,then tried the beetroot payasam aka kheer along with vermicelli.Addition of vermicelli gives a nice texture to the kheer,even millets,basmathi rice and broken wheat can also be used.To give a rich creamy taste I used some ground almond and sweetened condensed milk.Lets move on to the recipe...................................
