Learn how to make aval payasam with sugar in cooker. Easy to prepare dessert with rice flakes, sugar, milk as main ingredients and yet rich in taste.
Jump to:
I once tasted aval paal payasam in a restaurant and ever since I tasted, wanted to try it out at home.
Also wanted to prepare in cooker and see how it turns out. Instead of boiling and cooking aval in open pot boiling method, I tried giving a whistle in small pressure cooker.
It turns out really creamy and rich. Actually my mom in law always makes aval payasam with sugar, in microwave.
She adds very less milk, still it turns out great. She adds little milk in the end rather than cooking aval in milk.
I have not made that way yet myself here, though have made under her instructions many times.
I get many feedback of aval payasam getting curdled while using jaggery.
So you can try if you find it difficult, you can use sugar as in this aval payasam recipe.

should the milk be already boiled before adding to the aval in cooker?

I didn't boil, if you're using fresh milk, you should boil.
