Guys, my mom's recipe for semiya payasam. This is how it goes.
Ingredients
Vermicelli : 1/2 cup
Sugar : 1 cup
Ghee : 1 tbsp
Raisins, cashew - 1/4 cup
Cardamom powder
Thick milk
Method
1. Fry vermicelli in little ghee till it becomes golden brown
2. Boil milk and add fried vermicelli
3. Allow the mixture to boil in reduced flame till vermicelli gets cooked
4. Add sugar and keep stirring
5. When the content becomes thick and vermicelli is cooked, switch off the gas.
6. Add cardomom powder, fried cashewnut and raisins
Alternative method
Kesari powder can be used
Poha can be added along with vermicelli in equal proportion
Milk can be boiled till it becomes concentrated
Cashew and badam can be ground nicely and added to the above mixture along with saffron
This gives nice flavour to the recipe

Yummy... I too like this. No problem when served in a cup with spoon. But in functions it is served in banana leaves. To make the task easier I take it mixed with appalam (Pappad)so that it will be relatively easier to eat using hands. Pappad also adds up to the taste!
I never knew you can eat it with appalam. Well, I'm going to try it next time..LOL
Appalam goes well with this...and that those served during weddings...yummy :)
