When it comes to South Indian cuisine, what is the first thing that strikes your mind? Dosa, idli, sambar, and vada? Those are surely special, but the mouth-watering delights of the South don’t end just there. The exquisite taste of authentic Mysore pak or Tirunelveli halwa will excite any taste bud and will make your heart desire for more. You must try the wide range of unique jaggery-based and sugar-based South Indian sweets if you have a sweet tooth.
It is said that the word payasam has been derived from ‘peeyusham’, meaning ambrosia or nectar. An absolute must-have during special occasions, payasam enjoys a permanent place in traditional South Indian thali. Authentic payasam is made of jaggery and coconut milk, giving it a taste and flavour that people will kill for.
