Notes

Tips for Rice Dal Kheer Recipe

1. Roasting the rice and dal in ghee lends a nice flavour. But for a quick version it can be used directly.
2. Pressure cook the rice-dal thoroughly and mash it well, to get a creamy rice dal kheer.
3. Adjust jaggery as per sweetness required. Always filter the jaggery to remove the impurities.
4. Jaggery can be replaced with sugar too, but traditionally this Arisi Paruppu Payasam is prepared with jaggery only.
5. Simmer the flame and then add the jaggery, else there is a chance to get curdled, as the payasam has milk in it.
6. For a delicious taste, 1/2 cup of coconut milk can be added at last.
7. Addition of saffron strands is optional, but it lends a nice aroma.
8. For more flavour, 3 to 4 cloves and a piece of mace can be roasted in ghee and added to the payasam.
9. This payasam thickens with time, so adjust with warm milk before serving.
