Method:

  • In a pan add a drop of ghee and roast the basmati rice till it emits a nice aroma.
  • When it is cool, pulse it once in a mixer.
  • Take a heavy-bottomed pan or a pressure cooker. Pour milk into it. Add the pulsed basmati rice to it. Put a clean spoon into it, this helps in avoiding the milk leaking out and getting burnt in the bottom.
  • Cover the pressure pan/cooker with the lid and keep the flame to medium. After 5 min put the weight, and when the cooker gives one sound keep the flame low.
  • Let it be in simmer for half an hour. After that, switch off the gas stove and when the pressure comes down add sugar and garnish with saffron.
  • If using a heavy-bottomed nonstick pan, just keep the flame in medium-low and let it boil till it becomes 3/4 th of the volume.
  • This payasam tastes nice when it is hot and serves chilled also.
  • Enjoy it according to your preference.
  • Condensed milk can also be added to the milk if you want.
  • If adding add 4-5 tbsp of condensed milk for 1 litre of milk.
  • Basmati rice can be replaced with sona masoori rice | jeeraga samba rice too.
