Semiya Payasam is one of the oldest and traditional recipes. I read in one of the website that Semiya payasam has more than 500+ years of history and they quoted that Purandaradasa has mentioned Semiya Payasam in one of his spiritual keerthana “Rama Nama Payasakke”. This kheer one of the simplest and tastier payasam which can be made quickly. Vermicelli(Semiya) Payasam is one of the traditional Payasam variety which is very popular and routine in most of the South Indian Kitchen. We can serve this delicious dessert hot or cold! A perfect rich kheer for any occasions.

Tips for making Semiya Payasam:

  1. We can use both roasted and un-roasted semiya for this recipe. Both roasted and plain vermicelli needs roasting in ghee. We just need to roast the roasted vermicelli for 2-3 mins but un-roasted plain vermicelli needs more roasting till it turns golden.
  2. For 1/2 cup of vermicelli I have used 4 cups of milk. Vermicelli tends to make the milk thick upon cooling and hence add more milk.
  3. Also for 1/2 cup of vermicelli, I have added 3/4 cup of sugar. If you like only milk sweetness, then reduce sugar to 1/2 cup. If you want to enhance this kheer, instead of sugar, we can add 1/2 cup of sweetened condensed milk like milkmaid.
  4. Along with roasted cashews, if you like, you can roast raisins, almonds and add it to kheer.
  5. Finally we can cool down the kheer and pour in kulfi/popsicle mould, freeze and enjoy the semiya kulfi!

Hi

If we buy roasted semiya, then we dont need to roast it again. If not, its better to roast in in a little ghee. Thanks

Hi Deepika, Cooking the semiya in the milk makes it sticky only. You can cook the semiya separately with a cup of water and then add it to the boiling milk, then the semiya would not absorb the milk fully.
