Semiya payasam

This recipe serves 3.

I have made this payasam in a drinking consistency.The same thing can be prepared thick as a pudding.

Ingredients:

=========

• Roasted thin semiya - 2 handful (For pudding,add 4 handful)
• Milk - 1 liter
• Sugar - 100 to 150 grams(depending on sweetness)
• Ghee - 1 tablespoon
• Raisins and Cashews - 6 to 10,each

Method:

======

• Use the thread variety semiya for more taste.Roast it in a tsp of ghee.You can also get readymade roasted semiya.

• Boil the milk and set aside to cool down little bit.
• Add the roasted semiya to the milk and keep stirring on a medium flame.(may be 10 to 15 min)
• Once the semiya is cooked and milk thickens slightly,add sugar and keep stirring for 5 min.
• (For pudding,keep stirring till you get a consistency slightly thicker than gravy).
• Roast cashews and raisins in ghee and add to the payasam.

Serve hot/chilled.For payasam or pudding,stop cooking at one level before the expected consistency as it thickens with time.
