I was waiting to make this payasam for quite sometime but i couldn't find red rice here in Bahrain. So this time when i went to India “Paysam rice” was topping my shopping list :). I had tried making pal payasam before in a pressure cooker, for the first onam after our wedding. The taste was good, but the effort was not worth it ( i had a hard time cleaning the cooker as well as the kitchen).
This time i just blindly followed the long method mentioned in Archana's Spicyana, except for the quantity. I had only 1 litre milk and i was soooo determined to make the payasam today, come what may, i just took the half of what she has mentioned. Here goes the quantity that i used.
Here is the recipe…
Ingredients
- 4 cups Milk
- 3 cups Water
- 2/3 cup Rice (i used the red rice)
- 1 cup Sugar
- 2 – 3 Cardamom (pods crushed)
- 10 Cashew nuts (toasted in ghee)
Instructions
- You can see the method here. This quantity is sufficient for 4, 5 people. Thanks Archana for this beautiful and simple recipe.

One simple note which i got from my mom…for pal payasam the rice used is a special red rice called ‘unkkal ari’…..I think this is available only in kerala….
Thanks Sabitha :) I’ve seen Nirapara brand payasam rice here, its red color but dont know whether its same as the one you are referring to, anyways thanks for the info, I will check that rice during my next trip to Kerala :)
