We were not great fans of Semiya Payasam while growing up. This simple sweet dish once in a while, savoured in moderation with diverse flavours truly sweetens up the moment: Crushed cashews, pista, almonds and flavours of rosewater and wisps of crimson petals from North India....& cardamom, fried coconut slivers, and beautiful golden half moons of cashew adorning the South Indian bowls...
As prasadam today and later my contribution to the Christmas Party.
