Easy Palpayasam (Rice Pudding)

 
 
 
 
Onam brings lot of good memories. For me, Onam is associated with good food, family time, flowers, songs and the list goes on. Preparing onasadya is a tedious job, so to make it simple at least for the main highlight - payasam, here's a palpayasam recipe with zero effort and hundred percent taste guarantee with just 3 ingredients.
 

Wishing all a happy and prosperous onam !!!


Ingredients
  • 1 litre milk( full fat )
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 4 tablespoon payasam rice or broken matta rice (podi-ari)

In a pressure cooker add all the ingredients. Stir well till the sugar dissolves. Switch on the flame, close the lid of the pressure cooker with the weight and cook in high flame for 5min and reduce the flame to the lowest in a medium burner and cook for 30 min. Off the flame and let this rest for another 20 min until the pressure subsides. That's it payasam ready and serve hot or cold.
 
 
 
 
Do Note
 
  • The colour of the payasam should be light pink. To get this colour the milk should be cooked properly so the cooking time is important and the flame should be low .
  • Never open the lid before the pressure subsides.
  • Broken basmati rice can also be used for this recipe.
  • The payasam will thicken slightly once it cools. It can be loosened by adding milk if a thinner consistency is needed.
