Festival recipes | Tamil new year
Tamil New Year, also known as "Puthandu," is celebrated with much enthusiasm and joy among Tamil-speaking people worldwide. It marks the first day of the Tamil calendar year and usually falls on April 14th. This day is filled with rich traditions, cultural festivities, and a sense of new beginnings.
Medu Vadai
Sri Rama Navami
Sri Rama Navami is a Hindu festival, celebrating the birth of Lord Rama. The Rama Navami festival falls in the Shukla Paksha on the Navami, the ninth day of the month of Chaitra in the Hindu calendar. Thus it is also known as Chaitra Masa Suklapaksha Navami, and marks the end of the nine-day Chaitra Navaratri celebrations.
Festival Menu Dishes
Cinnamon Raisin Bread
Cinnamon raisin bread, especially is a fantastic breakfast choice because of its comforting flavor, soft texture, and natural sweetness.
The combination of cinnamon and raisins brings a natural warmth and sweetness that makes each bite feel comforting, perfect for a morning treat.
Elaneer payasam
Elaneer Payasam, also known as Tender Coconut Kheer or Coconut Water Payasam, is a refreshing and delightful South Indian dessert made with tender coconut water and coconut flesh. It's a cool and sweet dish, perfect for hot summer days or as a refreshing conclusion to a meal.
Pongal Kuzhambu
Pongal Kuzhambu is a flavorful and tangy curry that is typically served with Pongal, a popular South Indian dish made with rice and lentils. Pongal Kuzhambu complements the mild and savory taste of Pongal, creating a well-balanced meal.
Burger buns
I enjoy baking these eggless burger buns that closely resemble classic brioche buns are soft, slightly sweet, and have a rich, buttery taste with a tender yet slightly chewy texture. These buns are enriched with milk, butter, and a touch of honey , giving them a beautiful golden-brown crust and a light, airy crumb inside.
Thavala Dosai
The word "Thavala" (தவள) in Tamil refers to a traditional cooking pot or a heavy bottomed utensil commonly used in kitchens of the past. These heavy-bottomed bronze or brass vessels were used to prepare a variety of dishes, including this unique Thavala Dosai. The name comes from the method of cooking, where the batter is poured into a well-heated bronze pot (Vengala Paanai), resulting in a crispy, thick, and flavorful dosai.
