 Ksheerannam
Ksheerannam is a solider version of the Pal Payasam as it uses much more rice and is also richer than Paravannam, a lighter milk-and-rice puddingmade in Andhra Pradesh. It is fairly labour intensive but the results are absolutely worth it. The slow cooking of the rice in the milk releases a lot of starch into the milk and this makes the Ksheerannam absolutely creamy and rich.

Recipe Notes

Tips
Stir continuously after adding the rice. Else, the rice will stick to the bottom.
Resist the temptation to turn the heat to high in an attempt to cook the Ksheerannam faster. You will only succeed in burning it or then having half-cooked rice.
Do not add sugar in the beginning as the Ksheerannam will burn quickly.
It is a rather heavy dessert, so have in small portions.
