Gokulashtami Wishes!!Aval Payasam Recipe

Aval Payasam / Rice flakes Payasam / Poha payasam is a very easy payasam that we can make for any festive occassion.So thought to post it for tamil new year 🙂

Wishing all my readers a very happy tamil new year!!

The best part of tamil new year is the custom of arranging jewels, fruits, money in front of a mirror overnight and early morning the first thing we see is all the arranged things through the mirror. And thats how we start the tamil new year day followed by a hearty meal with sambar, kootu,poriyal, vadai and payasam. 🙂

Aval Payasam / Rice Flakes Payasam
This payasam is quite easy especially during the festival times when we have loads of work in the kitchen. It comes handy when we have the craving for payasam during regular days.

Elachi powder – 1/2 tsp

Serve hot or cold. It gets thickened while resting, so add in more milk while serving or as per your preference.

Aval Payasam Recipe

My Notes:

  • I used thick aval so soaking for 5-7 mins was required. If you use thin variety then soak only for 3-5 mins else it will become mushy.
  • This payasam becomes thick after sometime so take it off in a running consistency. Add milk at the time of serving if required.
  • You can add 1 tbsp of condensed milk to make this payasam even more rich and creamy.
  • It thickens with time so switch of accordingly.

Wishing you all, the best in this tamil varudapirappu and always. See you all soon on Monday with another recipe from my kitchen 🙂

    Hi sharmilee I hv tried the payasam twice. Both the times, the milk curdled after adding jaggery. I was Continuously stirring by keeping the stove in sim only. Wat may be the reason. I don't know whether pune jaggery is different from TN jaggery?
