Recipe Notes

DATES PAYASAM

Here I took 15 dates to make this sweet dish

These dates are seedless
I also took walnuts and almonds. Any other dry fruits could also be used
To a bowl, add dates, walnuts and almonds
Add hot milk to the bowl till the dry fruits sink
Soak for 15-20 minutes
In the mean time, fry almonds and pista for garnish
Heat 1 teaspoon clarified butter in pan
Add the chopped almonds, pista and fry till they change colour
To the same bowl, add 3 1/2 cups milk amd boil it on high flame
As effervesence start to form, put the stove on low flame and simmer for some more time till the milk thickens
Stir and simmer
Grind the soaked dryfruits along with the milk and grind it into a soft paste
Add some more milk if needed
We can see that the milk has thickened
Now add the prepared paste and simmer for 10 more minutes till the payasam thickens
Here I'm adding 2 tablespoons sugar.
Sugar is optional, only add it if more sweetness is desired
Clarified butter also could be added
Add 1/2 teaspoon cardamom powderfor flavour and mix
Garnish with fried almonds and pista
Serve hot or cold!
