Rice Kheer
Rice
payasam or rice kheer recipe
Turmeric Leaves, apart from adding them in pulaos, pakoras and sabzis, one can
also add these fragrant leaves in the rice kheer.
The whole kheer is made in coconut milk and is excellent for vegans. :-)
if you do not have turmeric leaves, then just don’t add it. simple as that. the
same rule applies for palm jaggery. just add sugar or jaggery.

Notes
1. One can also make their own coconut milk.
Simply
ground 1.5 cup grated coconut with 1.5 cup water. sieve
through the strainer. this is your thick coconut milk, now add the
coconut back to the blender with 1 cup water, blend again, strain,
this is thin coconut milk. repeat this process one more time.
2. substitute sugar if not adding jaggery.
3. adding jaggery thickens the payasam, so don't overcook. just simmer on low flame for 2-3 minutes.
4. if you add sugar, than you can cook for some more minutes.
5. the payasam becomes thick on cooling. so if you want a little liquid and flowing payasam than you can add some more coconut milk or water.
6. also the sweetness can be adjusted as per your taste.
7. after chilling the kheer in the fridge, the coconut oil solidifies. so if you want you can warm the kheer before serving.
