Fusion payasam recipe 

Both my husband and I love pasta, and nowadays even my little one started liking Mac & Cheese. Every time I open a pasta packet I wouldn't finish it and have some leftovers. To finish the remaining uncooked pasta, I end up buying some variety of pasta again. Another day I felt like having semiya payasam and searched for semiya, suddenly pasta pulled my attention, and tried pasta payasam. It was a big hit at home.

What kind of pasta works for Pasta payasam?

I have used Elbow variety of pasta which is my favorite type for pasta payasam. If you are using other big-size pasta it might take a little longer time to cook. For spaghetti-type pasta I would recommend breaking it for the best taste.

Can I cook pasta in water for pasta payasam?

Yes, you can cook pasta in water according to package instructions and add milk to the cooled pasta. To make pasta kheer rich and delicious I personally prefer cooking pasta in milk.

Can I add evaporated milk /condensed milk for Pasta payasam like your paal payasam?

Of course yes, that will definitely add some richness to the payasam recipe. If you are using evaporated milk reduce the milk quality accordingly. if you are using condensed milk reduce sugar accordingly

Notes

  1. Pasta can be cooked in water according to package instruction and milk can be added to the cooked pasta
  2. I have used elbow pasta but any pasta of your choice can be used
  3. Saffron can be added for extra flavor
  4. For pasta cooked in water add evaporated milk like semiya payasam to boost flavor 
  5. I have used all-purpose-flour pasta but wheat pasta can also be used but the flavour might vary
  6. Avoid flavored pasta for kheer
  7. If you are adding condensed milk for extra flavor adjust sugar accordingly
  8. I sometimes caramelize the sugar and add it to the payasam

  1. I am not familiar with this dish. Do you use it more as a dessert or with a meal? It looks very tasty 🙂

  2. I love love macaroni and cheese too! Your recipe sounds delicious... I could eat it for all three meals a day!

  3. Sounds delicious, rice might be nice also like a rice pudding. I've never had macaroni in a sweet dish It really does sound good.

  4. What an interesting way to make macaroni pasta. I have never heard of cooking the macaroni in milk. I imagine this is velvety goodness. sounds delicious.

  5. Wow! you have re-defined payasam my friend! I never had payasom with macaroni! I so would like to taste it!

  6. I would never have thought of this. A macaroni kheer! What a perfect fusion meal. I have to stay away from this as I've been obsessed with kheer for years. It literally has all of my favorite things, cardamom, saffron, condensed milk. Say no more!

  7. That is a new idea for me to add macaroni in kheer, I am sure it is tasty.
    Sorry coming after long time on your blog.
