Paripu Payasam (Kp) (Split Pea Sweet With Coconut Milk) Recipe
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1/2 c. Yellow split peas or possibly red Egyptian lentils
- 2 c. Water
- 3/4 c. Brown sugar
- 1/8 tsp Salt
- 2 c. Coconut lowfat milk
- 1/2 tsp Grnd cardamon
- 1 x Tabelspoon coconut slivers, (brown in oil) for garnish.
Directions
- Wash the beans and boil with the water till it evaporates and the beans are just about mush. (The recipie says 20min - but mine took longer- but I am learning a new stove) Fold in everything else (except coconut garnish), bring to a boil and then simmer 15 min. Serev warm, topped with the sauteed coconut.
- I would like to thank everyone for the product help. I will have my mom look for them. Since I couldn't find any hexsured coconut lowfat milk here I used Coffee Rich and mixed in coconut extract till it tasted right. Last night is the first time I made this. It tasted great, it is very sweet and fairly sticky - a little like a custard.
- One last note, if you do not use Cardamon and need to buy some be warned, it is very expensive $9-$11 (US) for a bottle.
