Once cooked transfer it to another pan.

Add the jaggery syrup, 3 pinches of salt and cardamom powder.
Mix well, bring it to a boil and cook for about 2 minutes.

Now add the thick coconut milk and cook for about 5 minutes, till the payasam thickens.
The payasam will thicken when it cools down, so turn off the heat depending on your preferred consistency.
In a pan add ghee and when hot add cashewnuts and saute till they golden brown.
Add the cashew nuts to the payasam.
