Ingredients

Instructions

  • Take a pressure cooker put the stand add water then place the vessel containing milk on it. Put a spoon inside the vessel (this is to avoid milk overflowing).
  • Close with a lid then close the pressure cooker and cook with whistle in lowest flame for 20 mins.
  • After 20mins switch off and allow the pressure to release by itself.
  • Meanwhile measure and take ada.
  • Soak in hot water for at least 15mins, then rinse it well and keep it ready.
  • Now open the pressure cooker, you can see the milk having a slight ivory color, the aroma itself will be so tempting.
  • Now remove the spoon and pour this milk to the pressure cooker directly and heat it up. Add ada.
  • Cook until it becomes soft, then add sugar and cardamom powder.
  • Cook for 5 more mins in low flame or until it reaches a thick creamy consistency. Switch off.
  • Serve Palada Payasam hot / warm. I love Kerala Style Palada Payasam chilled!

Notes

  • This payasam tends to thicken with time, add milk at the time of serving.
  • You can even add cashews fried in ghee and add it.
  • Adding spoon or a plate will avoid milk from overflowing.
  • Cool down the payasam fully before pouring it into the mould.
  • If you feel the payasam to be thick, just add in little milk while serving.
  • You can serve it warm or cold – I love it cold 🙂
