Yummy payasam/kheer with no sugar added. Prepared with dates,semiya/vermicelli and nuts.No sugar is added in this payasam
Ingredients: Serves 4 to 5
- 3 to 4 cups - Milk (I have used 2 %)
- 1/4 cup - Roasted semiya/vermicelli
- 5 to 10 no's - Dates without seeds ( add as needed)
- 2 tbsp - Nuts powder (almond +walnuts few)
- Pinch of cardamom powder
- 6 to 8 no's - Cashew nuts
- 6 to 8 no's - Raisins
- 1 tsp - Ghee
Preparation method:
- Heat a pan, add 2 cups of milk and bring it to boil. Add the semiya/vermicelli and continue to cook until they are soft and well cooked.
- Meanwhile, grind dates with milk to a fine paste. Now add this paste to the cooked vermicelli along with nuts powder, cardamom powder and remaining milk. Bring it to boil and cook for 5 more mins.
- Meanwhile, roast cashew nuts and raisins in ghee until they are golden brown in color. Add this to the prepared payasam/kheer and switch off the stove and serve hot or cold.
Notes:
- If you find the sweetness is not enough, then grind more dates with milk and add it to the payasam. Cook for 2 more minutes.
- Nuts powder: I ground 3 to 4 almonds and 3 to 4 walnuts to a fine powder.
