This is a very tasty and rich payasam. My mom prepares this often for me as I get to eat more pooris with this payasam. The almonds and the other nuts adds more nutrition to this delicious payasam.





Ingredients:
Poori:  2 nos
Milk: 1 cup
Sugar: 1/2 cup
Saffron: a pinch
Cardamom: 3
Almonds: 5 or 6 (Can also use pistachios, cashews. See notes)
Ghee: 1 tsp
Cashews: 3 or 4

Procedure:

    Soak the almonds in hot milk , blanch and then grind it to a paste
    Soak the saffron also in 1tsp of warm milk
    Boil the remaining milk and add the sugar.
    Add the ground almond paste and mix well
    Tear the poori into small pieces and add to the milk
    Add the saffron and powdered cardamom as well
    Finally fry the cashews in ghee and it to the payasam



Notes:
There is no hard and fast rule for the measures. Adjust the milk & sugar according to taste
Instead of grinding the almonds, the badam milk mix is available, it can be used.
My mom sometimes soaks cashews, almonds and pistachios together. She also used to mix the ground paste with milk and then filter it.
