Paal Payasam (Milk Kheer)
Slow-cooked until the milk reduces and turns a gentle pink, this payasam is pure comfort in a bowl. Every Kerala celebration ends with a payasam like this — rich, sweet, and fragrant with cardamom.
Ingredientsfor 4 servings
- 10 cup Milk
- 2 Dsp Brown broken rice
- Condensed milk Half a tin
- 1/2 cup Sugar
- 1/2 cup Cashew nuts sliced lengthwise
- 1/2 tsp Cardamom powder (Elakka)
Preparation
Step 1
Mix together 2 cups of water and 2 cups of milk and boil.
Step 2
Add rice to it and cook well.
Step 3
Add the remaining milk, condensed milk and sugar and allow it to boil.
Step 4
When it begins to thicken, add cashewnuts and stir continuously, till it becomes quick thick.
Step 5
Mix the cardamom powder with a little milk and add it to the payasam.
Step 6
Serve while still hot or chilled.
Tip
Never rush the milk reduction by increasing the heat. Scorched milk adds a bitter undertone that ruins the entire payasam.
