About Rava Payasam
Payasam (kheeri, payesh, Kheer , or phirni) is a sweet dish and type of wet pudding popular in the Indian subcontinent. It is typically made by boiling milk, sugar or jaggery, and rice, though rice can be substituted with daals, bulgur wheat, millet, tapioca, vermicelli, or sweet corn. It is commonly flavoured with desiccated coconut,
cardamom, raisins, saffron, cashews, pistachios, almonds, or other dry fruits and nuts, and pseudograins have recently gained popularity. Its usually served as a dessert.
Rava Payasam, also known as Sooji kheer, is a quick, easy, and delicious pudding made with Sooji, milk, nuts, and cardamom powder. Its is a Special dessert recipe made on the occasion of Karthigai Deepam and Diwali .
Ingredients for Rava Payasam
Sooji / Rava / Semolina :
Suji, also known as semolina, has been a staple in Indian cuisine for centuries. Semolina, which is made from coarsely ground whole wheat, is widely used in South Indian cuisine. This coarsely ground grain is used in a variety of sweet and savoury dishes.
Cashews :
Cashews contain a lot of starch, which will thicken sauces just like flour and potatoes do. The use of cashews over flour, for example, has the advantage of adding a lot of flavour to the Kheer.
Milk:
Milk serves several purposes in baked goods. It provides liquid to hydrate the dry ingredients, adds flavour, aids browning, and softens texture.
