Poha(Aval) soaked in milk-in black & white?



Are you hungry and looking for a quick fix snack? Try this recipe. I have been eating this quite often ever since I saw the recipe in creative saga's blog! It hardly takes 5 minutes to prepare.
So here is the recipe..

Ingredients:
Poha-1 cup(thin variety)
Warm Milk-1/2 to 3/4 cup depending on the consistency
Almonds-5
Walnuts or Cashews-4
Sugar-2 tsp(or according to taste)
Cardamom-a pinch
Saffron(optional)-a few strands

Method:
Wash poha in water and drain. Set aside for 10 minutes.
Powder the nuts.
When poha becomes soft, add warm milk, sugar, cardamom, saffron and ground nuts. Mix well and serve.

Easy and healthy isn't it?

  3. Hey... Nice one :)
    one question... how do you dry grind the nuts? do you use a spice grinder? if so, can you let me know the make and model? I have been looking for one for a long time.

  10. Mahimaa, What a coincidence- I was just the other day thinking of making poha payasam. Your version looks really delicious with the saffron sprinkled on top.

  17. Hi Mahima,
    Thanks for visiting my blog.This is my first time to your blog.
    After seeing your Malai kofta Recipe I'm tempted to make it today. So my menu today is Malai kofta and poha in milk.
    It's a great healthy idea to make koftas in Kuzhipaniyaram pan. Thanks for sharing the idea.
    I'm in total awe with your blog. Will take some time and go through your wonderful recipes.
    Happy New Year to you and your family :-)
