Description

Payasam is a sweet dish of Kerala. It is an integral part of any sadya (kerala vegetarian festive lunch). There are different types of payasam using different lentils and fruits. The sweetnes comes from either sugar or jaggery. Base of payasam can either be coconut milk or cow's milk. The addition of cardamom, dry ginger and cumin is to aid in the digestion.

Note

1) Wheat bits which are specifically available for making payasam and upma. It is made from samba wheat.
2) Some people add fried raisins and cashew. I did not. I added only coconut bits to give a nice bite.
3) Use a very large cooker, wheat will just increase in qty.
