Step 1

To prepare this delicious payasam recipe, put a deep-bottomed pan on medium flame and melt ghee in it. When the ghee is hot enough, add the cashew nuts and roast them. Once done, transfer to a bowl and keep aside. Add the grated coconut to the same pan and lower the flame, dry roast till golden brown in colour.

Step 2

Now, add the pureed jackfruit to the pan along with jaggery powder and roasted cashews, and cook for about 10 minutes. Make sure that the mixture is thickened.

Step 3

When the jackfruit mixture is thickened, add the coconut milk along with cardamom powder and stir continuously. Stop in between and bring the milk to a boil. Let the milk and jackfruit mixture simmer for another 10 minutes.

Step 4

Once cooked, turn off the flame and garnish with mixed dry fruits. Serve hot!
