Dates Payasam - Wish you all a very Happy Onam

>> Aug 22, 2010

I wish you all a very joyous, fun filled and yummy onam.
To celebrate this wonderful harvest festival of Kerala, i am here today with a payasam recipe. A dates payasam, which is the quickest and simplest payasam that i have ever seen. This is my Aunts recipe and I made it yesterday for our Onam sadhya at my place, we all loved it . Hope you all will enjoy it too.


Ingredients:-
Dates(eenthapazham) seedless - 1 cup
Boiled milk - 2 cup
Condensed milk - 2 tsp
Cashew nuts - 1/4 cup
Raisins - 2 tsp
Ghee/butter - 3 tsp
Crushed cardamom/cardamom powder - 1/2 tsp
Water - 1.5 - 2.5  cup

Method
Chop the seedless dates into small pieces.If you are using dates with seeds, remove the seeds and chop it.
Cook it by adding 1.5 cup water for 10 minutes, till it is mushy and the gravy/sauce is thick. Add more water if you think its is not cooked or if you want a bit more sauce.
Add boiled milk to this and simmer for another 5-7 minutes, stirring continously and add condensed milk  and mix it well. Add crushed cardamom and let it stand for another 2 minutes .
Heat butter or ghee in a pan and fry cashew nuts and raisins till golden brown. Pour this over prepared payasam and serve ..


Cheers!!
Sarah
