    can I skip ghee?

    Makhana can be roasted without ghee/butter but for tasty payasam I recommend roasting with ghee.

    HOW TO ROAST MAKHANA?

    For a perfect roasted makhana recipe roast them on low flame, and while sauteing the foxnuts always make sure they are mixed well for even browning. Avoid high flame as it might burn the makhana.

    CAN I USE JAGGERY OR OTHER TYPES OF SUGAR INSTEAD OF WHITE SUGAR?

    Yes, You can use brown sugar or jaggery or any sweetener of your choice but the taste slightly differs.

    CAN I USE LOW-FAT MILK FOR PREPARING phool makhana KHEER?

    I would recommend whole-fat milk for the Kheer recipe. It gives richness to the fox nut payasam. You can use 2% milk. Avoid 1% milk for payasam.

    SHOULD I GRIND makhana?

    Some people make payasam with whole makhana, it might take time for makhana to turn soft. To make it quick and nice texture I prefer crushing the makhana. Perfectly roasted makhana crushes easily. Alternatively, you can pulse them and use them.

    USE NUTS OF CHOICE

    I have used roasted pistachios. You can use any variety of nuts according to your choice.

    can i skip condensed milk

    it gives richness to the payasam. Alternatively you can use evaporated milk or boil milk it reduce to 1/3 quanity.

    HOW LONG DOES makhana PAYASAM LAST?

    if it is stored in the refrigerator, payasam stays good for 2 days
