Sabudana Kheer – Sago Kheer
Happy Tamil New Year and Vishu to all our readers…
Today is Tamil Varusha Paruppu or Tamil New Year and tomorrow is Vishu, which is the new year festival celebrated in Kerala. I made sabudana payasam which is one of my favorite dessert. I like the chewy texture of it in the kheer. It is simple and yummy. Here you go…
Preparation time: 60 minutes
No. of Servings: 8
Ingredients:
- Sabudana or javvarisi – 1/2 cup (any size)
- Milk – 4 and 1/2 cups (I used 2% milk)
- Sugar – 1/2 cup
- Ghee or clarified butter – 2 tsp
- Cashew nut – 1 tbsp
- Raisins – 1 tbsp
Method of Preparation:
Heat a tsp of ghee in a pan and fry sabudana till it puffs up. On the other side boil 2 cups of water in a sauce pan. When sabudana is ready add it to the boiling water and let it cook until it becomes transparent and soft.
In another pan bring milk to a boil. Reduce heat and continue to boil until it becomes 1/3 rd of the quantity. Add sugar and allow it boil for some more time.
Strain the cooked sabudana through a colander and add it to milk. Continue to boil for 5 to 10 minutes, turn off the stove and add a few strands of saffron.
In the same pan where you fried the sabudana, add another tsp of ghee and roast the cashew nuts until golden brown and then add raisins. After it puffs up add these to the prepared payasam.

Hi Parul, sorry for the late response. Yeah I meant add the kheer to the pressure cooker and cook for 10 mins over low heat. This way it ll be cooked well. It also depends on your cooker and stove. Adjust accordingly.
