What is jaggery?
It is coarse dark sugar we get here in india for making many traditional sweets/desserts.You can check here for more info : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaggery
I add half cup of javarisi along with moong dal.It makes the payasam thicker and tastier.Give a try
Payasam and kheer, is there not any difference, can payasam be called kheer? Kheer is ubiquitous and while payasam is typically south indian , ofcourse now cannot be boxed
Its awesome I tried ds receipe..!!

Hi Sharmi. If I want to make it with coconut milk only and skip milk, how much coconut milk should I add?
You can add 1/2 cup thick coconut milk and 1/4 cup thin coconut milk
Taste was really nice, thanks for sharing!!
