Milk: 1 1/4 cup
Unsalted Cashews: 1/2 cup
Sugar: 1/3 cup
Non fat milk powder: 3 tbs
Water: 1 to 2 tbs

Ghee: 1 tsp

Procedure:

• Immerse cashews in water for an hour or more. Deplete and grind them into smooth paste.
• Join cashew paste and milk in a saucepan and bring it to boil stirring in between.
• Make a paste by dissolve milk powder in 1 or 2 tbs of water. Add sugar and milk powder paste to the boiling milk and cook until all the sugar is melted and it comes to a boil stirring constantly.
• You can totally avoid milk powder and add 1 or 2 more tablespoons of sugar for the sweetness which it gives but the milk has to be boiled for quite a long time to thicken.
• Switch off the stove and transfer to the serving dish.

• Sprinkle these almond slices on to the payasam.
• Serve up as a dessert.
