Directions
Fry the vermicelli in the butter till golden brown. Add boiled milk and stir continuously. Add the sugar and keep stirring regularly. Stir till the vermicelli cooks completely and the payasam is slightly thick in consistency. Do not make it too thick as it thickens further after cooling. Add the fried cashew and raisins and Enjoy!!

Extremely easy recipe. Result was good. Everyone at home enjoyed it. The only change I made to the recipe was once the vermicelli was half cooked I added about 3 tablespoons of condensed milk.
