Notes:

  • After adding jaggery syrup immediately switch off the stove. Do not boil it again otherwise milk will get curdled.
  • Payasam gets thick after sometime. To bring it to right consistency you can add enough warm milk or cold milk before serving.
  • Adding almond puree is optional but it tastes good if you add it.
  • To avoid curdling of milk, i keep jaggery syrup in refrigerator for a while and add it to the payasam.
