Notes

Payasam will get thicker after some time. So make it watery if you are planning to serve later.
You can use raisins along with cashews.
Allow it to cook in water and then add milk.
If it gets thicker, you can add some boiled milk to adjust consistency while serving.
Adjust the sugar according to your taste and preference.
Since we soak sago in hot water, it gets cooked faster along with semiya.
You can cook them separately and add too if your sago is taking time to cook. But I always find this easier to cook together.
You can use condensed milk to make it more creamy and rich.
Reduce the quantity of sugar if you are using condensed milk.
