Is Butter required while making Caramel?

Caramel can be made without butter and it tastes good too. For a beginner, caramel might be challenging as there is a high chance of caramel turning bitter or crystallize. My mother-in-law mix sugar and butter while making Tirunelveli halwa inspired from that I started following it and it works like a magic. Caramel prepared in this way will never go wrong 😊

Can I use jaggery or other types of sugar instead of white sugar?

You can use brown sugar and make butterscotch Payasam and It tastes equally delicious. For a healthy Payasam, you can use jaggery like my caramel makhana but taste slightly differs.

Do I need this much amount of sugar for Caramel kheer?

I have tried various combinations of the milk + sugar ratio, personally, I like this ratio as it gives a nice color to the caramel kheer. Having a sweettooth I liked it but adjust the milk and sugar according to your preference. The color of the payasam depends on the caramel

Can I use room temperature milk for caramel payasam?

It is preferred to use hot milk while making payasam. Room temperature milk might crystallize the caramel. Always add the hot milk immediately after making a caramel.

Can I use rice, Semiya, or any add on to the caramel Payasam?

Yes, the caramel can be added to any type of Payasam. It will make the payasam extra tasty. Instead of adding sugar recently, I tried adding the caramel to my pasta Payasam and it turned out super delicious.

    Notes

    1. Adjust the milk according to your taste. The color & flavor of this kheer may slightly vary based on the color of caramel also the sugar
    2. Avoid burning the caramel as it will make the payasam bitter
    3. Cook the caramel at low flame and turn off the flame immediately after it is formed else it might crystalize
    4. Always use hot milk
    5. Cooked Semiya, rice, sago, etc. can be added to sago payasam
    6. Adjust the sugar according to your taste. the color of the payasam depends on the amount of sugar
    7. Boiling the kheer for a longer time will result in thick payasam
    8. Instead of sugar, Jaggery can use for caramel refer caramel Phool makhana
