This is a very simple kheer made in a jiffy. Generally, it is made for Varalakshmi pooja or any auspicious Fridays. Though my mom makes rava payasam, this is the first time I am trying at home. It turned out very well and it is a very easy and simple payasam. I added little condensed milk so that it will not taste like porridge.

I used sugar in making this payasam. But you can add jaggery too instead of sugar. It will turn out very well. I have given tips in this video if you are using jaggery in this payasam. If you want to make quick sweet | kheer for neivedyam or for guests, you can make this rava payasam.
