Sabudana / Javvarisi Payasam




Sabudana / Javvarisi is had during vrat / fasting. And we usually make something savory - either Sabudana Khichdi or Sabudana Vada with it. This is a sweet preparation and my brother - Vinayak Parameswaran, loves it. He used to call it 'muthu payasam' (pearl payasam).

Ingredients:
Javvarisi / Sabudana / sago - 1/2 cup
Milk - 750 ml
Sugar - 1/2 cup or more
Almonds - 1/4 cup
Saffron - 1 pinch
Elaichi / Cardamom - 2

Method:
Soak the Sabudana in 1 cup water for 1/2 an hour.

It will have soaked in some water and expanded. Add 1 more cup water and keep for boiling.

After 10 minutes on low flame it would be cooked.
Add the milk and keep boiling on simmer for 6 - 10 minutes.

Add the sugar and mix well.

Once all the sugar has dissolved, add the saffron, cardamom and almonds.



Cook for 5 more minutes and serve. Once cold it will thicken further.
