Sago Kheer/ Javvarisi Payasam

Super dooper kheer it is. It is a tasty dessert I must say. Alltime favorite but I made it for the first time  ever. 



Ingredients:

• Sago / javvarisi/ Sabudhana - 1 cup 
• Milk - 3 cups
• Saffron
• Cardamom powder
• Sugar- 1 1/2 cups or acc to sweetness
• Cashews and raisins
• Ghee - 1 tsp

Method:

• Wash and soak sago in water for 5-6 hrs. It would have doubled in size.
• Boil milk in a vessel. Soak the saffron in little warm milk.
• Add the soaked sago to the boiled milk and allow it to boil till the sago becomes transparent and becomes like pearl. It automatically starts to float.
• Add sugar to the milk. You can also use condensed milk.Trust me , I did not add condensed milk but it was too rich in taste.
• Add the cardamom powder and saffron
• Heat another small wok, add a tsp of ghee fry the cashews and raisins. 
• Add it to the Ready kheer.

Relish the wonderful Sago Kheer as dessert !
