Semiya Payasam Recipe – Vermicelli Payasam Recipe

February 18, 2020 25 Comments

Onam has come and gone. Due to the recent bomb blasts in Hyderabad, things were a little gloomy at home. But nevertheless, I had two Onam sadyas – one at my colleague friend’s house and the other at my friend Amitha’s place. It was her first Onam after her wedding and her parents were in the city. So we all enjoyed a full-fledged sadya.

Payasam is an intergral part of any sadya and is the after-taste invariably. I for one, am a payasam lover but find it too time-consuming to actually prepare it myself. Anyway, this is the payasam that we made at home. The simplest and easiest of them all – Semiya Payasam.

Browse all payasam recipes. My favourites are – ada pradhaman, paneer payasam, and payar payasam.

SEMIYA PAYASAM RECIPE

Ingredients for Semiya Payasam:
Milk – 3 cups
Water-1 cup
Vermicelli/semiya – 100gm
Sugar – 1 cup (adjust according to taste)
Cardamom – 4
Cashew nuts – 12
Raisins – 8
Ghee – 2 tsp

How to make Semiya Payasam:

1. Fry the raisins and cashew nuts in the ghee. Remove and then fry the vermicilli till it turns golden brown. Keep aside.

2. Mix water with the milk and boil in a pan, stirring constantly. Add sugar and cardamom. Bring to boil keeping the fire on sim.

3. Now add the vermicilli, stir well and bring to boil again. Make sure the vermicilli is cooked (leaving the pan aside, closed for some time will help)

4. Garnish with the fried raisins and cashews.

We enjoy semiya payasam cold but serve warm or cold accoring to your taste 🙂

    Hi Nags, glad to hear that you are okay and were not affected by the blasts.

    Like you, I love this Semiya Payasam. Actually, I made some just last week 🙂 My mom used to make it for us at dinner time. We simply call it wet-vermicelli (lol) I had mentioned on my blog sometime back how practical we are in naming our dishes. Just looking at your payasam, makes me want to go and make some right now 🙂

    Thanks very much for stopping by my blog and helping me to discover yours. I’ll definitely be coming back for you.

    Come back and visit when you can.
