KHEER / VERMICELLI PAYASAM

This week I have posted one rice dish, gravy and one non veg dry item. Now I am posting a sweet dessert, I think then only the brunch will complete, right?. So here is simple, quick and easy dessert recipe:


Semiya Payasam:
Cooking time: 20mts
Cuisine : Andhra
Serves : 3

Ingredients:
4 cups whole milk
1/2 cup water
1.5 cup roasted vermicelli (semiya)
2 tbsp roasted cashewnuts
1 tbsp raisins
1/2 tsp elachi powder
sugar as per taste

Method:
1. Boil the milk and water (mixed) in a thick bottom vessel, once boil add roasted vermicelli on medium flame.

2. Cook till vermicelli completely comes to tender, then add sugar, mix, cook for few more seconds on low heat, add elachi powder, roasted cashew nuts and raisins. Turn off the heat. Serve hot.


Note: 1. If you have normal vermicelli, then before boiling the milk, heat 1/2 tsp ghee, in that fry the normal vermiceeli till light golden color.

2. Add heat one more tsp ghee, fry the cashew nuts and raisins till light golden color and keep aside.

    @Hi SRA, totally I don't like to use whole milk, because of fat. Its an optional. If you want, you can skip the water. Thanks for dropping by.

    @Hi Asha, thanks a lot.

    @Hi Kajal, come and have it. Taste and tell me. Thanks.

    This brings back such warm memories. My mom used to make this for us on Friday evenings as a treat. You have inspired to me try making some.
