Aval Pal Payasam

Aval Paal Payasam

August 25, 2016 By Priya Shiva 6 Comments

Print Recipe

Krishna Janmashtmi or Gokulashtmi or Krishna Jayanthi is celebrated in India to amrk the birth of Lord Krishna. Any festival in India is incomplete without sweets and savories. So, even for Krishna Jayanthi, we make many dishes like Seedai, Nei appam, Thenkuzhal etc. I made this Aval Paal Payasam today as Aval is one of the favorite food for Lord Krishna.

I love celebrating any festival. Festivals are not just about cooking good food and eating it. The real essence of any festival are the positive vibes it brings to our homes. So, celebrate the festival with positivity and God will surely bless you..

Aval is also known as beaten rice or poha. Aval paal payasam is a milk pudding mainly made with beaten rice and aval. It is easy to make and usually loved by everyone. So, sharing the recipe for Aval Pal payasam and wish you all a very Happy Krishna Jayanthi <3

    Aiyyo, took me so long to move my lazy bones after a good break to get back to blogging and encouraging my friends. I still crave for this payassam. Hailing from a multicultural background, our neighbours used to prepare this and send across. Wish you lots of good health!!
