Notes

  • You can simmer and thicken the milk like rabdi and use it too but adjust sugar and condensed milk accordingly as reduced milk may not need more sugar.
  • I would not suggest to search for any replacement for condensed milk as it is one of the main ingredient which flavors the payasam.
  • I had tender coconut pulp from one tender coconut which was thick so used it for grinding along with tender coconut pulp/
  • Make sure the tender coconut pulp is soft and pulpy which you use for adding as such.
  • You can add ghee fried cashews if you want.
  • Use full fat cream milk for rich taste.
  • You can use homemade condensed milk too.
  • The payasam thickens with time mainly after chilling it so adjust accordingly.
  • When you chill the payasam the sweetness should be more than usual.
