Instant pressure cooker semiya payasam – Easy to make semiya payasam | Vermicelli kheer in 15 minutes in pressure cooker.
Today we are celebrating 15 years of Jeyashri’s kitchen. This milestone is impossible without you all Thank you so much for your constant motivation. Check out my first post on Jeyashris kitchen Paal payasam.
Everyone at home loves Semiya payasam. It is a milk-based payasam made using semiya | vermicelli. Usually, we make semiya | vermicelli payasam by slow-cooking the semiya in milk to get a creamy payasam. It generally takes 40 -50 minutes. This one is an instant one, which takes 15-20 minutes only and you don’t need to stand and stir the payasam for a long time.
We are using roasted vermicelli | semiya for this payasam, if you are not using roasted seimya, roast it in ghee till it turns golden brown and then proceed. If you have sudden guests at home or are running out of time on busy pooja days, try this payasam.
As Janmastami is approaching, you can make this milk-based payasam | kheer for neivedyam. I have posted 5 easy Janmastami recipes, specially curated for busy professionals, elders, bachelors, and newly married. I have added a little condensed milk to enhance the creaminess of the payasam.
