    Paal Payasam

    Paal Payasam is a rich traditional sweet delicacy made with milk and rice. Paal Payasam is made on festive days and on special occasions like birthday, anniversary and family get-together. Paal Payasam recipe presented here with step by step pictures and video.
    Prep Time10 mins
    Cook Time30 mins
    Servings2 people
    AuthorSharmilee J

    Ingredients

    • 1/4 cup basmati rice
    • 1 and 1/2 litre full cream boiled milk I used Aavin green
    • 1/2 cup sugar
    • 3 to 4 strands saffron
    • 2 tsp ghee
    • nuts to garnish optional

    Instructions

    • Roast rice in 1/2 tsp ghee till nice aroma rises (don't change the color of the rice). You can grind the rice coarsely at this stage, its optional (run the mixie just once to break the rice). You can even cook the rice as such like how I did.. without mashing if you like the whole grained rice.
    • In a pressure cooker(grease it with 1/2 tsp ghee), add 1 cup of milk to the rice and pressure cook for 2 whistles in medium flame, switch off.
    • Once pressure releases , add milk and switch on the flame again.
    • Then add sugar and stir well and simmer for 5mins. Then mash up the rice with a ladle.
    • Then simmer for 10-15 mins until a thick creamy payasam consistency is reached. Garnish with ghee roasted nuts / saffron.
    • Serve Paal Payasam hot or cold as per your preference!

    Notes

    • The payasam thickens with time so switch it off accordingly.
    • You can even crush and add saffron at the last stage and give a quick stir. I wanted it milky white for the pics so just garnished while clicking :).
    • You can add cardamom if you prefer.

      i dont have a pressure cooker which, of course, is very fast, so how about a slow cooker instead ? it wd make the rice and milk creamy as well, dont you think ? cardomon will be my seasoning instead of saffron / okay, i am heading to the kitchen right now !

      is it possible to make this without saffron? I couldn't find it in my local store at UK. That is available in some online stores but very expensive. Is it cheap in India?

      Saffron is just for flavour. You can skip that and add cardamom powder else just enjoy the full flavour of milk 🙂

      Do we have to add boiled milk for payasam also? Because you already told in javvarisi payasm if we boil milk for long time it curdles

      Thanks for sharing a perfect receipe. Tried paal payasam for this year’s tamil new year.. Turned out so rich and creamy. Apart from frying rice in ghee, I didn’t add any nuts or raisins. Got appreciation from everyone..
