javvarisi payasam with jaggery /sago kheer/sabudana payasam

javvarisi payasam with jaggery /sago kheer/sabudana payasam Sweetners put in boiling milk with some favourite nuts makes ever tempting payasams. Its well accepted one to be made any time and its such a hearty dessert that every one will always love. Javvarisi payasam is yet another festival time delights that are commonly done at all our homes. Its usually done by using sugar and here I have tried it with jaggery. Its better to soak javvarisi before in hand because some variations may take longer time to cook. The starch from sago will make the payasam thick so please feel free to make it to the consistency you will enjoy. Some add coconut milk instead of milk and you can always try. You can add even saffron for extra flavour but I have not added as cardamom flavour itself is enough to go well with jaggery. This javvarisi payasam with jaggery has a rounded sweet flavour that every one will enjoy with each sip. Sometimes even I add semiya with javvarisi and do this payasam its a variation that you can always try and it tastes really good.
