Payasam - Vermicelli

Here I go again... more and more and more sweets. Easy to make yet very very delicious and amazing recipes. Wish I knew a million of these recipes.

Ingredients:

Milk - 2 cups
Vermicelli - 3/4 cups
Sugar - 5 to 6 tbsp
Cardamom powder - 1/2 tsp
Ghee - 2 tbsp
Cashew nuts - 10 to 15

Preparation:
  1. Heat the ghee in a pan and fry the cashews in it till they turn golden brown. 
  2. Remove them from the ghee. 
  3. Add vermicelli to the left over ghee and fry it till it changes the color a bit. 
  4. Once fried add the milk and let it boil. [I like less milk with my sweet, so added just 1.5 cups of milk instead of 2 cups]
  5. Keep mixing to avoid lump formation. Add the sugar and cardamom and mix well.
  6. Let it boil till the vermicelli is cooked.
  7. In the end add the fried cashew nuts and mix well.
Enjoy when it is hot!!!!!
