Apple Payasam

How to Prepare

1. Heat 4 liters of milk in a large pot over medium heat and bring it to a boil, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.

3. Add 2 cups of sugar to the milk and stir until fully dissolved.
4. Add 10 grated apples to the milk mixture and cook for another 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
5. In a small pan, heat 4 tablespoons of ghee and fry 40 cashew nuts and 40 raisins until golden brown.
6. Add the fried cashews, raisins, and 2 teaspoons of cardamom powder to the payasam and mix well.
7. Cook for an additional 5 minutes on low heat, then turn off the stove.
8. Serve warm or chilled as per preference.
