I used to make same kind of payasam. But the addition of badam powder is really a nice idea. I'll try to add it next time.

Delicious. We call it "doodh Pohe" in Marathi. It is made for Gokulashtami along with dahi pohe (yogurt & pressed rice).
Easy crafts, Me too love them a lot and its one in the menu for any festival..
Shriya, Adding badam powder is my own special effect and is optional.. I added to enhance flavour.
