Water: 3 cups
Jaggery : 500 gms

Cashew nuts & Raisins: 1/2 cup
Bite size coconut pieces: 1/4 Cup

Cooking Time: 40 minutes
Method

Pressure cook the cleaned broken wheat in 3 cups of water.
Cook it on high flame for around 2 whistles and in medium flame for 10 minutes and then switch off the flame.
Once all the pressure is gone open the lid and drain if there is any excess water.
Melt the jaggery with ½ cup water.
Strain the melted jaggery and add it to the cooked wheat
Keep stirring and boil the paayasam well till it becomes thick consistency
Now add medium thick coconut milk to this and boil till it becomes slightly thick consistency.  Do not stop stirring
Now add thick coconut milk. Give a good stir and add crushed cardamom and switch off the flame
Heat ghee in a small pan and fry the coconut pieces. When it starts changing colour, add cashew nuts and raisins
Add this to the payasam and mix well

Note:
Once the paayasam cools it will thicken more.  So adjust the consistency accordingly.
