What is Aval Payasam?
Be it a festival such as Gokulashtami | Navratri | Ganesh Chaturth| Onam, etc., or quick Indian dessert for sweet craving or sweet for sudden guest we need some simple Indian milk-based dessert recipe. Flattened rice | Rice flakes payasam is a popular south Indian pudding or dessert recipe. In Tamil Nadu it is popular as Aval payasam, In Andhra Pradesh, it is called Atukula Payasam, in Karnataka, it is popular as Avalakki Payasa. Cane sugar-based quick dessert is not only healthy but also the best payasam recipe.
What kind of Poha should I use for Poha Kheer?
I prefer using Thick flattened flakes for the kheer recipe. Avoid paper poha as it might not hold shape in the payasam. If you are using thin poha avoid soaking them. Boil the poha in milk and prepare payasam.
Can I use regular sugar or jaggery instead of Cane sugar?
I have used demerara cane sugar for making Aval paal payasam. Yes, you can use white sugar or jaggery instead of Cane sugar. demerara cane sugar crystals are big so I have sautéed cashews and sugar together till cashews turn brown. White sugar/ brown sugar/jaggery powder might caramelize soon so if you are planning to make caramel payasam, sauté cashew and make separately. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3zYDDQHDMSsDmGckCyPVdjoBxAv4amD1
Can I use low-fat milk for preparing Poha kheer?
I would recommend whole-fat milk for the Kheer recipe. It gives richness to the Aval paal payasam. If you are using 2 % milk avoid soaking Aval in water. Use 1 +3/4 cup of milk and cook aval in milk. Avoid 1% milk for payasam. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3zYDDQHDMSssyx_uCMtLLfz-zJJXJTnN
Can I use condensed milk for Rice flakes payasam?
Yes but in that case skip the sugar and add extra milk as condensed milk payasam tends to thicken over time https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3zYDDQHDMSsDmGckCyPVdjoBxAv4amD1

Yes, you can use coconut milk instead of milk and prepare Payasam like Chana dal payasam
