ELANEER PAYASAM |ELANEER PAYASAM RECIPE |EASY PAYASAM RECIPES

 
Have you ever tried Payasam with elaneer (tender coconut) !. Though i have heard this many times , never tasted this or made on my own at home. Last month when Suresh visited Chennai officially, he happened to taste this elaneer payasam in a restaurant and immediately he called me and told it tasted very nice. I am so curious to try this at home but don't have any clue as how to make it. I asked my mom and she told she had written this in her note book and she sent that book with my hubby. That book has lot of nice recipes , which my mom learnt from many source.
Elaneer payasam turned out extremely well and i highly recommend you to try this at home for a change from usual payasams. This kheer needs no cooking too. Sounds interesting right!

Ingredients

  Preparation Time : 15 mins | Cooking Time : Nil |   Serves : 2

    Tender coconut water(elaneer) 1 cup
    Tender coconut pulp ( Valuval )  4 tblsp
    Condensed milk  2-3 tblsp
    Thick coconut milk  1/4 cup
     Cashew nuts 2 (optional)

Method:

• In a vessel, add the coconut water. I used the Thai coconut available in local stores here. You can use the big one also.
• Take out the soft pulp of the tender coconut. We call it valuval or vazhukkai in tamil.
• grind this into a smooth paste.

• Add this to the tender coconut water (elaneer)
• Mix nicely. Add Condensed milk and coconut milk to this.

• Mix well and transfer it to serving bowls. 

• If you want you can add roasted cashew nuts.
• Serve Chilled.

  
Note:

1. If you want to make coconut milk at home take 1 cup of  freshly scrapped coconut and add few tblsp of water and mix this nicely. 
2. Squeeze out the coconut and extract the milk. You will get thick coconut milk.
