Dulce de leche payasam with semiya. Rich, creamy and caramel flavored payasam. Simple and easy to prepare but very delicious payasam.
Dulce de leche is made by cooking sweetened condensed milk for long time which ends in caramel flavored thicker creamy end product.
I have tried this before, once and loved it. had as such. Wanted to try payasam with it and thought of making it for New year post too.
So got two cans of condensed milk.
Tried a method of making dulce de leche in microwave oven. But somehow could not get the same even effect of the dulce de leche made in the pressure cooker method.
So made in pressure cooker method itself referring Easycooking blog. Payasam made with Dulce de leche was really rich and delicious.
Wishing all my readers a very Happy New Year! 😊

Quick question - IS it safe to cook the tin? Is it meant to be used like that?
subha
sorry about another question. Do you think I can put two tins in the cooker at a time instead of doing them separately?

Thanks for responding. I am going to try this for a poutluck for 75. /can you tell me how much dulce de leche does the tin yield. I see you used only 1/2 cup for your 2/5 cups of liquid. Trying to determine how much I would need. TIA!
