One of the easiest way to satiate those cravings for a dessert is to make this payasam which is ready in no time. With coconut milk readily available these days, it takes just ten minutes to make it.
Ingredients:
3 tbsps thick poha/ flattened rice
200 ml thick coconut milk
250 ml water
5 cashews halved
10 raisins
1 tsp cardamom powder
Jaggery as per taste
1 tbsp ghee.
Method:
Tip the coconut milk and 250 ml water into a pan. Bring to a boil on a very low flame. Heat the ghee in a pan. Add the cashews and roast to a golden brown. Remove. Add the raisins and roast till they fluff up. Remove and keep aside. Roast the poha in the remaining ghee till it changes colour. Add all the roasted ingredients and jaggery into the boiling coconut milk. Add the cardamom powder and simmer for a couple of minutes. Switch off. Serve hot . You can also refrigerate it and enjoy it cold.
