The amount of jagerry is depending up on ur taste ..u can increase or decrease the amount of Jagerry.

So the tasty and easy gothambu payasam is ready to serve ..

(It will become very thick when it cools ..So try to serve hot in sadya .If ur payasam became really thick then dont worry add some boiled water and mix well..check the sweetness .add more jagerry if u want ..Colour of the payasam will depend up on the colour of the jagerry u use .If u r using dark colour jagerry ,the colour will be light brown shade otherwise it will be in light yellow colour )
