    Maa Vilakku Maavu Recipe - Maa Vilakku Recipe with step wise pictures.

    Traditional rice flour lamp or maa vilakku made during karthigai deepam or festive occasions like aadi velli, thai masam, vilakku poojai.

    When we were little we used to attend vilakku poojai in near by temple every month. We used to make this maa vilakku during that time and worship vilakku(lamp) by doing flower archanai. This is a tradition followed till now. But now i dont go temple often because of time issue.
