1. Carrots - about 10-12
2. Sweet condensed milk (Milkmaid) - 1 can
3. Unsweet condensed milk - 2 cans

Method:
1. Peal the skin of the carrots and grate them.
2. Steam the carrots with little water for 10 mins.
3. Allow the steamed carrots to cool and beat it in a mixer (without the water) to make a semi solid paste.
4. Put the carrot paste in a pan, and add the unsweet condensed milk to this paste and heat it in medium flame.
5. Also add the sweet condensed milk (about 3/4th of the can) and keep stirring the mixture.
6. When the mixture starts to boil, remove the pan from the flame.
7. In another pan, add 2 spoons of ghee. When it heats up add cashews and fry it till it becomes brown and add it to the mixture.
8. Serve the payasam hot.
