Aval Payasam Recipe
Aval Payasam / Rice flakes Payasam / Poha payasam is a very easy payasam that we can make for any festive occassion.So thought to post it for tamil new year :)

Wishing all my readers a very happy tamil new year!!

The best part of tamil new year is the custom of arranging jewels, fruits, money in front of a mirror overnight and early morning the first thing we see is all the arranged things through the mirror. And thats how we start the tamil new year day followed by a hearty meal with sambar, kootu,poriyal, vadai and payasam. :)

This payasam is quite easy especially during the festival times when we have loads of work in the kitchen. It comes handy when we have the craving for payasam during regular days.
