Navarathri is a very famous festival in India. Here Maa Durga is worshipped at the beginning of "Autumn" . All nine days, each avathar of Durga is worshipped. After worship, all the devotees are offered prashad . The prashad includes, sundal, sweet pongal or any variety rice. In India, near our home, we have many Brahmin friends, who used to display their goddess dolls on shelves as a display. Here is the link,where I would have posted pictures about the "Golu" which I pictured at my friend's place.
Ingredients:
1.Black eyed peas - 1 cup
2.Mustard seeds - 1/2 tsp
3.Broken urad dal - 1/2 tsp
4.Red chillies - 3
5.Curry leaves - few
6.Hing - a pinch
7.Salt - as needed
8.Shredded coconut - 1/4 cup
9. Water - as needed
10. Oil - a tsp
Method:
Wash the black eyed peas and soak it for atleast 3 hours. But if we are running out of time, we can also cook it directly ,without soaking and cooking for more whistles. But peas will not hold its shape, if it is cooked without soaking.We can also add some oil in a pan, slightly fry the peas and cook it for 3 to 4 whistles.
Happy navaratri wishes to all !!!
