Thirupullani Paal Payasam | Divine Temple-Style Sweet from Tamil Nadu

Описание: Thirupullani Paal Payasam | Divine Temple-Style Sweet from Tamil Nadu

Here’s yet another timeless traditional recipe from Tamil Nadu — Thirupullani Paal Payasam, a rich and creamy dessert made with five simple yet divine ingredients: rice, milk, saffron, jaggery, and cardamom. This temple-style sweet carries the warmth and devotion of South Indian heritage and melts in your mouth with every spoonful.

✨ Ingredients:
¼ cup raw rice
1 litre full-fat milk
1 cup nattu sarkkarai (jaggery)
2 pinches saffron
1 tsp cardamom powder
A small drizzle of ghee
A tiny pinch of edible camphor (optional but traditional)

🥣 Procedure:
Rinse ¼ cup of raw rice and spread it on a white cloth. Let it dry completely for about 30 minutes.
Once dry, grind the rice into a coarse powder and keep it aside.
Heat a saucepan, add a splash of water to prevent sticking, then pour in 1 litre of full-fat milk and bring it to a gentle boil on low flame.
Add two pinches of saffron and stir well. Allow the milk to thicken slightly and absorb the colour and aroma.
Gradually sprinkle the rice powder into the milk, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
Let the mixture simmer on low flame for 10 minutes until the rice is fully cooked and the payasam turns creamy.
Add 1 cup of nattu sarkkarai, mix well until it dissolves completely.
Stir in 1 teaspoon of cardamom powder, a small drizzle of ghee, and a tiny pinch of edible camphor for that divine temple-style aroma.
Adjust the consistency with a little warm milk if needed — traditionally, it’s made thick and rich.
Once the aroma fills your kitchen and the texture turns glossy, turn off the flame and transfer to a serving bowl.
Serve warm and enjoy the divine taste of this Thirupullani Paal Payasam — a recipe that brings together devotion, flavour, and tradition in every bite.

✨ Pro Tips:

Always use full-fat milk for a creamy texture.
Use nattu sarkkarai for a deep, earthy sweetness instead of sugar.
Edible camphor adds an authentic temple aroma — just a pinch is enough!
