Nei payasu

Nei payasu - Nutan Shenoy-Kini

Recipe:
Cook oñe cup rice. Keep aside. 
Tk 21/2 cups jaggery powdered in 1/4 cup of water and boil well. 
Remove scum. Transfer rice to the jaggery syrup. 
Add 1/4 to1/2 cup ghee. Mix well. 
Add powder of 5-6 cardamoms. Mix well.
Keep heating on low flame till the mixture leaves sides of pan.  
add dry ginger powder too. 
Garnish with cashew, coconut bits and raisins sautéed in ghee. 
Nei payasam is ready. 

(Plz do not keep the rice on flame for too long after the ghee is added. Just till the mixture leaves sides of pan, otherwise it ll turn hard once cooled. Boil 1 cup rice in 3 cups of water in pressure cooker for 3 whistles. Thirdly using molasses makes payasam tastier. I dint hv any, so used jaggery )
