Kozhukattai Payasam is a traditional Indian recipe for a dessert or sweet dish of rice flour balls served in a condensed milk sauce that is often presented during Diwali.
Ingredients:
210g (1 1/2 cups) rice flour
250ml (1 cup) milk
250ml (1 cup) water
pinch of salt
1 tsp sesame oil
For the Sauce:
1 tin (400g [14 oz]) sweetened condensed milk (or coconut milk)
6 cashew nuts, fried in butter until browned
1 tsp crushed cardamom pods
Method:
Boil the water in a pan with the salt and a few drops of sesame oil. When the water just comes to a boil gradually whisk in the rice flour, ensuring that no lumps are formed. Cook until the mixture is thick then form into balls (these are the kozhukattai).
For the sauce, pour the condensed milk in a pan. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly and cook for 5 minutes. Add the cashew nuts and cardamom pods and cook for 5 minutes more.
Add the kozhukkattai balls to a serving bowl, pour over the condensed milk sauce and serve.
