Semiya Payasam - Kheer - How to make Vermicelli Payasam


Semiya Payasam or Kheer is a very easy and quick sweet dish for any south or north indian festivals or special occasions. I have prepared this with loads of Nuts and saffron and more of milk.


How to make Vermicelli Payasam



Ingredients:

1. Semiya (Vermicelli) - 1 1/2 cups
2. Milk - 3 cups
3. Sugar - 4 to 5 tbsps
4. Cardamoms - 4 Nos
5. Cashews - 10 to 15 Nos
6. Raisins - 10 to 15 Nos
7. Ghee - 1 1/2  to 2 tbsps

Procedure:

1. Heat ghee in a bowl. Fry cashews and raisins to golden brown and keep aside.

2. In the same bowl, fry vermicelli slightly. Take care not to burn the vermicelli.


3. Add milk to it and cook for 2 mins until vermicelli turns soft.


4. Add sugar to it and cook for another 2 mins.

5. Crush cardamoms to a fine powder and add it.



6. Finally add fried dry nuts and switch off.



Note:

1. Do the entire frying and cooking in a low flame.
2. Vermicelli gets cooked very fastly so no need to cook them in milk for a longer time. Just 5 mins is enough.
3. Also don't stir the vermicelli often, if you do so, milk thickens and vermicelli turns to a mass. 
4. Always payasam should be in drinking consistency which is preferred.
5. But if you keep out for a longer time it thickens and becomes a mass.
