This Palapazha Payasam | Jackfruit Kheer Recipe is something that mom recollected when my neighbor and one of my student gave us loads of jackfruit arils.She was telling me about the payasam that my grandma used to make and how flavorful it used to be. I jumped at the opportunity and decided to make it.
I had to use up the jackfuit arils and then I also got the chance to try out recipes with this fruit.I made a simple jackfruit milkshake and then this kheer.
This payasam is very simple and gets done fast.I made a huge batch and shared it with the people who gave me this fruit!
So, this is the first recipe for Blogging Marathon #104 with the theme Sweets and Snacks,

What a unique kind of kheer! The moong dal kheer is taken to another level with the addition of flavorful and sweet jack fruit, I bet.
Good to see you back PJ !
Moong Daal kheer is really unique and adding jackfruit is interesting . I am sure the kheer must have been a delicious treat , although I feel jackfruit is an acquired taste .
This is surely a wonderful combination PJ, the creamy Moong must have added flavours to the Jackfruit! Can’t wait to read your Mega BM posts!
Wow! PJ! Welcome back to BM. You have made a very delicious comeback. I have tried the vegan version with jack fruit but this one with moong dal adds a special punch to this already delicious kheer.
What a combination PJ, moong dal and jackfruit. Sounds really interesting. Never heard of this combo. Will have to try it next season. It looks yummy.
Jack fruit payasam looks so interesting and inviting. Milk and moong dal would have elevated the taste
I love moong dal kheer, jackfruit must have added great flavor too. Nice pick for the theme.
