Pal payasam recipe
Ingredients ( Makes about 6 – 8 servings)
- Unnakkalari / red rice / payasam rice – 1/2 cup, rinsed well
- Sugar โ 3/4 – 1 cup or to taste
- Milk – Around 5 cups (I used low fat milk (2%). If you are using whole milk – use 4 cups of milk and 1 cup water)
- Cardamom powder – 2 pinches or 2 cardamom pods slightly crushed
Method
In a 5 liter pressure cooker, add the rinsed unnakkalari, milk and sugar(You can also add 2 crushed cardamoms along with these ingredients). Close with the lid and cook at the lowest flame (or over low-medium flame). When the steam starts coming out, put the pressure cooker weight and cook for about 35 – 40 mts (without any whistles). Switch off. Keep it aside for a minimum of 1.5 – 2 hrs, before opening. Open the pressure cooker, check the sugar and add 2 pinches cardamom powder (if you did not add crushed cardamoms before) and mix well. If the pal payasam is very thick, dilute it by adding milk. Serve warm or cold.
Tips :
1. You can try pal payasam with basmati rice or sona masoori rice but traditionally it is made with payasam rice / unnakkalari.
Pal payasam my fav…but I have never attempted the pressure cooker version….The long method of stirring…always ends up with undercooked rice….:(..

That is a nice color you got from red rice. Never used red rice before.

Da.. one more question regarding this.. How many servings does this make? Also 5 litre cooker aano? Sorry for too much questions tto.. ๐
lovely clicks
tried you pal payasam for Onam today in the slow cooker. It was fantastic. thank you
You’re welcome ๐ Great to know that it came out well..
Can we use “Matta rice” -(which we use to make choru ) to make this payasam .?..
Nisha,
You can replace unakkalari (red rice) with pachari or basmathi rice..Kuthari (matta rice) is not used to prepare this payasam..
looks so yummy ๐
gonna try this for onam…
can i use “nirapara brand palakkadan matta/sortex rice ” which s the one i have with me righ now?
Hi Maya,
The consistency and flavor of the payasam came out well.
Can you please explain put weight of pressure cooker but no whistles? I closed the cooker and put the whistle on it and unfortunately the whistle went off and the milk came out.
Did you cook it with just the lid and not the whistle itself?
I landed up with cooking on open flame but fortunately the rice was pretty cooked. Everything else was delicious. I liked the concept of no continuous stirring ๐
Thanks! Sue
