Dear Krishnamma,
Please help........
I wanted to make this payasam and so I bought Sago (the pack said it is from Tapioca). I fried it in ghee, it did not increase in size but turned slight brown. I then added water and started stirring. Everything dissolved!!
What am i doing wrong??
Thanks for your time,
Bee

Dear Bee,

You did correct only. The quality of sago is like that. we cant help it. Try to get big size sago.

Dear Krishnamma,
Thanks a lot! I'm very new to making sweets and I gingerly approach each sweet recipe.
I chose this one since it looked very easy and I was mighty disappointed with what happened! I will look around for bigger sago here.
Thanks a lot,
Bee

Hi bee,

Dont worry. you can make sweets with out any problem. Because of the stuff it went like that.
Generally it will become 2 - 3 times bigger than its original size.

Then you will get correct payasam. Try just rice payasam as a start. You will get good result. See my son's thread. He will also prepare that payasam easily. He is a small boy who is preparing those items, then why not you? cheer up dont worry.

really yummy payasams here. thanks
