Here is my version of Ghus ghase payasam!

INGREDIENTS:
1. Basumati rice - 1 tbsp
2. Ghus ghase - 3 tbsp(dry roast till aromatic)
3. Fresh grated coconut - 1/4 cup
4. Pealed cardamom - 4-5
5. Grated dry copra - 1/4 cup
6. Soaked cashews & Almonds  -a few(to wet grind all items to a fine consistency)
7. Pure ghee - 1 tsp
8. Chopped Almonds & cashews - a few(fry in ghee)
9. Chopped jaggery - 3/4 cup
10. Water - 1/4 cup( to make jaggery solution)
11. Water used in all - around 3 cups for the dish
12. Milk - 1/2 cup
13. Chopped pistachio - 2 tsp

PROCEDURE:Place a pan and add 1 tbsp basumati rice to it on medium/low flame and dry roast till half done.  Add 3 tbsp ghus ghase to it and roast till both turn aromatic and keep it aside.  Add 1 tsp pure ghee to the same pan and fry chopped Almonds and Cashews to it and fry till aromatic.  Grind roasted Basumati rice, ghus ghase , fresh grated coconut, pealed cardamom, grated dry copra, soaked cashews and almonds  adding water in steps to a fine consistency.       Place a pan with chopped jaggery in it on low flame.  Add 1/4 cup water to it and bring it to boil and keep it aside.  Place another pan on low flame and add fried dry fruits to it.  Add grind wet payasam mix  to it and also add water and keep stirring as it would burn the dish if not done , since rice is added to it.  When cooked , add jaggery solution straining it in the strainer to the dish and bring it to boil adding more water if needed.  At this stage, add 1/2 cup milk and simmer the flame and just keep stirring till the milk is combined well with the payasam.  Garnish with chopped pista!  Yummm!!!
