Happy Saraswathi Pooja friends…My mum made 9 type of dishes for this pooja..And to celebrate saraswathi pooja I am posting a recipe which is made for all festivals and functions in our house..Then we go to any wedding over here…The food will be mostly vegetarian, They will serve all those delicious dishes in a big banana leaf..
Starting from a sweet they will serve all curries including poriyal,avial,pachadi,kichadi and many more. Then they will mount the leaf with hot steaming rice. After this they will serve you 5 or so gravies to go with the rice.They will serve this one by one.Starting from Dal,Sambar,Mor Kulambu,Rasam and Curd..Actually we should wait after finishing each gravies because they serve all these foods in an particular order..So if you finish your sambar rice,you should wait for the mor kulambu atleast for 5 mins..
I am a bit allergic to these kind of marriage meals(in our wordings it is called as kalya chapadu)..So if I get a chance to go to any wedding I will eat a little bit in everything and wait for the last step where they will serve three kinds of payasam ..In those three my favorite is semiya payasam…When the payasam arrives I will get myself ready..”There comes the payasam”..They also give you a ripe banana,puran boli or boondi and papadam..You should eat all these things along with the payasam,This one is my favorite…I will eat everything in this..That much I love this combo..I know you too will love this payasam,so with no more delay off you go to the step by step recipe..
