Hot or Cold Paneer Payasam.

During my visit to India, I came across the recipe for Paneer Payasam/ came back home, took my own sweet time and finally got the opportunity to try this recipe. The good thing about this recipe is that, it can be made easily and served hot or cold.





Ingredients:
Whole milk: 1 Litre.
Condensed milk: 1 Cup.
Dry nuts: cashew, pista and badam( chopped).
Paneer grated: 1 cup.
Saffron: few threads.
Cardamom powder.
Ghee: Few TSp to fry.

Method:
Take milk in a heavy bottom pan and bring it to a boil/ simmer until it reduces in half by stirring in between.
Soak the saffron threads in milk( few spoons).
Once the milk is reduced add the condensed milk, saffron soaked milk and cardamom powder and mix well.
Finally add the grated paneer, and simmer it for few minutes.
At last fry the nuts in ghee and add the fried nuts to the milk mixture.
Serve it hot or chill it in the fridge and serve cold.
