Paneer payasam or kheer is a bengali sweet dish or pudding called as channar payesh. Paneer, Indian cottage cheese is used to make this delicious, rich and creamy kheer or payasam. It is one of the sweets that can be prepared very quickly if we have paneer in hand.
To make this paneer kheer, we need paneer or chenna and sugar & milk. Homemade fresh paneer works best for this recipe.
I have shared so many quick and easy to make sweets with paneer and condensed milk like kalakand, rasmalai, chocolate ramalai, sandesh. These dishes are amazingly easy to make and taste delicious.
If you prefer to save some time then use condensed milk as needed in the recipe. The tinned condensed milk may not be a healthy option, but still it is quick and easy to make a yummy desert in no time, especially during festivals and occasions when we run out of time.
