PALADA PRADHAMAN

Ada Pradhaman is traditionally prepared with coconut milk and jaggery. Palada pradhaman is prepared with rice flakes, full fat milk and sugar. Rice ada or rice flakes is used for preparing both the payasams. As Onam is round the corner I prepared this easy Palada Pradhaman payasam and I wanted to share this recipe with you all.

INGREDIENTS

Rice Ada                     -1/3 cup (I used ready made rice ada)
full fat milk                 -3 cups
Sugar                          -1/2 cup
Cardamom powder   -1/4 tsp
Butter                         -1/2 tsp

METHOD

Soak ada in boiling water for 30 minutes.Wash the soaked ada in cold water. (This is done to prevent the ada from sticking together.)

 Drain the water completely and keep it aside.

Boil 3 cups of milk until it reduces to 2 cups. Then add the washed ada and cook stirring in low flame until ada becomes soft.

Add sugar and cook for some more time. The colour of the payasam changes to pale cream color.

 Mix cardamom powder and switch off the flame.

After 10-15 mins, add 1/2 tsp of butter and stir.
yummilicious Palada Payasam is ready. 

Serve hot or chilled.
