Thari Kanji (Semolina payasam ) -Malabar style


Thari kanji is also the special dish from malabar muslims.During the Ramzan time it is unavoidable in the Iftar Parties.Very simple to make ,simple ingredients .In some regions it is also called rava thilappichath.This can be made by either coconut milk or cows milk.And usually it is treated as a drink so the amount of rava will be less.But if you want it to be thick its amount should be increased.Even though it is a sweet item in some places they used to add the fried shallots to it.I do not like its taste so i am avoiding that step here.

Ingredients if you are using coconut milk


1.Rava/Semolina - 4 tsp
2.Thin coconut milk - 2 cup
3.Thick coconut milk - 1 cup
4.Sugar - 5 tsp
5.Cardamom powder -1/2 tsp
6.Cashew nuts -One hand full
7.Raisins - one hand full

2.Then heat the ghee in another pan and fry the cashew nuts and raisins.

3.Pour this to the rava mixture and also add the cardamom powder to it and mix it well.
