We make javvarisi payasam, semiya payasam often at home. Both guys love it.

Aj recently started liking payasam and he prefers cold. I like both these payasam. But always had wish to try the combination of payasam.

Have tasted only couple of times, have not prepared at home. Reason behind is doubtful how to cook sago and semiya together? Cooking separately and mixing was definitely not my idea.

Usually I buy the pepper sized sago here in Singapore. But last time got these tiny sago and from that time I wanted to try the combo payasam with javvarisi semiya.

The pack of sago emptied very fast and there was only about half a cup of sago and sitting in my pantry for a while now. I have not made payasam off late with javvarisi.

Notes

• When javvarisi is cooking, you will see a tiny dot (whitish/ opaque) in the middle. Do not wait until it disappear thinking it is not cooked inside. Once the mentioned times is over, you can proceed. It will eventually become transparent through out after adding sugar.
• Since I used tiny javvarisis, both roasted sago and semiya gets cooked together. If using larger size, first let sago cooked,  halfway through add semiya.
• Instead of roasting sago, you can also use soaked sago. Soaking time differs with size. But you can cook both well soaked sago and semiya together, regardless of size. 
• Adjust water quantity more if needed while cooking in step 4. This payasam gets thicker as it cools. The measurements given turns out to be spoonable payasam. If you want more runny, use 3 cups milk or more water and use ¾ cup sugar to balance the taste.
• You can use saffron in the recipe.If using jaggery in place of sugar, switch off the flame and then add boiled milk, mix.
