Kheer ~ Payasam

Kheer is one of the very easy recipe, that I do mostly to offer God on Friday's or any special occasion. It can be make with rice or vermicelli. 

Ingredients:

Vermicelli - 1 cup
Whole Milk - 3 cups
Sugar - 3/4 cup
cardamom - 4 powdered
Raisins - 1 tbsp
Cashews - 2 tbsp
Almonds sliced - 2 tbsp
Saara pappu ~ Charoli/Chironji - 1 tbsp
Pistachios - 2 tb chopped
Saffron - optional
Ghee - 5 Tbsp

Method:

In a pan heat 2 tbsps of ghee and roast all the dry fruits together. As soon as they they are changing color, remove it into a bowl. Now add 3 more tbsps of ghee to the pan and add the vermicelli to it. Roast it until it becomes golden brown color. Now add 3 cups of milk to this and sugar and mix all of it. Let it cook on medium heat for 10 minutes and add cardamom powder to it. let it cook for another 10 minutes. You could smell the nice aroma. Vermicelli will be all cooked. Now take this into a bowl and garnish it with all the dry fruits roasted earlier.
