When we say PAYASAM or KHEER, we invariable think of the sweet dish made with milk. But this special sweet dish can also be made with coconut milk. It is a bit of hard work, but the end result, makes it totally worth the effort.
So let us get started. We need just five ingredients
Coconut 1, grated
Cooked rice, 1 cup
Powdered jaggery, 1 cup
Ghee, 1 tsp
Cardamom powder, 1/4 tsp
Blend the grated coconut. Squeeze the milk and strain it. This is the FIRST MILK.
Now blend the residue again, with about 1 cup warm water. Squeeze the milk and strain it. This is the SECOND MILK.
Blend the residue again, with about 2 cups warm water. Squeeze the milk and strain it. This is the THIRD MILK.
Now in a thick bottomed pan, dissolve the jaggery and third milk. Cook for 5 mins or till the raw smell of jaggery is gone.
Then add the cooked rice. Mash it well so that it blends into the jaggery-coconut milk mixture. Cook for 2-3 mins.
Then add the second milk and let the payasam thicken.
Remove from flame. Add the first milk, ghee and cardamom powder.
Serve warm.
