Paal Payasam, South Indian Rice Kheer
Paal Payasam is a must-serve item during south Indian festivals, weddings and other auspicious occasions. Made of rice cooked in full-fat milk and sweetened with sugar, this kheer has a very rich flavour and creamy texture, which are boosted further by spices like cardamom and saffron. This South Indian Rice Kheer is something that kids and adults look forward to enjoying on special occasions. It is also one of the offerings made at Kerala temples, and you can find a long queue of people waiting at the prasad counter after mid-morning puja time to buy a portion of this kheer. In temples, the kheer is cooked in large, heavy-bottomed bronze vessels, which gives it an even more intense flavour and richer texture.
Preparation Time: 5 minutes.
Cooking Time: 13 minutes.

½ tsp cardamom (elaichi) powder
