  • Recipe Notes:
  • • Little Moppet Food’s organic jaggery is used to make the payasam which has no impurities, if your jaggery has impurities, make a jaggery syrup by just boiling the jaggery in little water and strain the mix. Add this to the payasam.
  • • you can make the payasam only using coconut milk. Do not boil the payasam for long after adding the milk. It looses its nutrition and flavor.
  • • Serve your baby the payasam while warm. Refrigerated left overs can be consumed my adults within a day.
  • • If making for small babies add dry fruit powder instead of whole nuts to avoid choking hazards
