FOR A SWEET TOOTH

Its been really longtime i didnt prepare Kheer or payasa.. and not much recipes in the blog too . My younger bro had come home and just like me he too likes sweets a lot and he likes to help me and my mom in the kitchen must tell u does nice rasam, chapatis and chats..

So here is the simple recipe for a delicious Kheer/Payasa

Preparation Time:5min

Cooking Time:25-30 min

Serves 4-6

Ingredients

1 cup broken wheat

1/2 cup jaggery

1/2 cup sugar

2 cups coconut milk

1 cup milk

1 tsp cardamom powder

cashew nuts/badam/raisins

Method

Wash broken wheat properly and pressure cook it for 4 whistle in 1.5 cup water and keep it aside.

Meanwhile prepare Coconut milk. I always like to put fresh coconut milk. Grate the coconut and put it in a blender with very lilttle water and make it a corase paste. Take out the milk either with the help of a muslin cloth. Do not put water to the first time when you take the milk and keep it aside the thick coconut milk. Once it is done then you can add water and take out the milk. Keep this saparately.

Take thick bottomed pan add the cooked broken wheat and add the watery coconut milk and the cow milk and let it boil. Just when it starts boiling add the 1/2 cup jaggery and 1/2 cup sugar and mix properly. and let the jaggery and sugar disolve competely.Please always stir in between as it tends stick to the pan.

Once the jaggery and sugar is dissolved add you choice of nuts, thick coconut milk and the caramom powder. Let it boil until thick consistency in a low flame.

Serve hot/cold it tastes very nice.
