Semiya Payasam

Happy new year 2011!

To start with the new year lets start it with a sweet dish. Let happy moments taste in all our mouth as well :)

Semiya Payasam. This is a very easy and common dish which all of us know. So how do you do it? Here is my version of the Payasam or Kheer.

1. Vermicelli - 1 cup
2. Sugar - 1 cup
3. Milk - 4 cups
5. Elachi - 1
6. Ghee - 2 tbsp
7. Cashew - 5
8. Dry grapes - 10

Heat ghee in a pan, fry the cashew and grapes till golden brown and keep them aside. Now add the vermicelli to the remaining ghee in the pan and fry them till they also turn golden brown.

Add 2 cups of boiled milk to the fried vermicelli. Let it cook for 5 mins. When the vermicelli is cooked add sugar and stir. Add the remaining cups of milk and bring to boil. Add elachi powdered, cashew and grapes. Turn off and serve hot or cold according to your taste.

For additional flavor add milkmaid.

The yummiest and easiest dish, you know to cook or new to cook. easy and best sweet :)
