semiya payasam recipe | vermicelli payasam

Semiya payasam or vermicelli payasam is a delicious payasam recipe made using vermicelli in milk.

This recipe is quite a popular recipe in south india as a sweet dish and often made during festivals or during certain occasions.

If you are looking for more dessert related recipes made with milk and other ingredients, then one should definitely try these recipes from my blog like sheer khurma, rava ladoo, badam milk, coconut ladoo .

The main ingredient required to make this dish is broken vermicelli and vermicelli is commonly called as semiya or seviyan.

They are available in two colors that is one is available in brown color and the other is available in white color and appears in the form of long thin strands.

The vermicelli or semiya has to be broken to make any semiya recipe and here I have used a brown one.

White semiya should be preferably used to make sheer khurma which is already shared on my blog.

The semiya payasam is a sweet flavored milk which tastes delicious after adding roasted vermicelli with ghee.

The vermicelli has to be roasted well in generous amount of ghee/clarified butter and mixed with milk along with some flavors added like elaichi powder/cardamom powder and dry fruits that really enhance the look and taste of the dish.

I often use semiya to make many instant recipes. Using semiya for quick recipes which can be sweet or dessert recipes or any kind of breakfast recipe such as vermicelli upma is a simple option if one is rushing up.

These also work good as bachelor recipes and semiya and upma can be quickly made without any difficulty and simple ingredients that are easily available at home.

I love making semiya sweets and is quite common in my family to make sweet dishes that use semiya as the main ingredient.

I would love to post many more semiya recipes in the coming days that are not only sweet recipes but can also be packed as kids lunch box recipes or as breakfast recipes.

Below are the details shared to make semiya payasam or vermicelli payasam which is quick in making and a simple dessert recipe made using milk and semiya.
