My Thali 76. Pejje Jevana.



My Thali 76. Pejje Jevana .... “Surai Tandla Pejje Jevana toopa ghalnu / Rice Poriridge topped with a dollop of ghee served with Kottambari Palle Gojju (Coriader Leaves Gojju), Batate Katla Upkari (Potato Bhaji) with sambar powder, Avalo~Tarni Mirsanga~Alley Nonche (Amla~Green Chilly~Ginger Pickle)” …. Yummy lunch …


** This is a Pejje Jevan Thali or combo meal, that is a comfort food for many people especially during monsoon or winter. It spreads in warmth in the body and induces a good sleep. Red boiled rice pejja is considered very healthy option among porridge / peja, however you can prepare the same with any rice too. Once again, I am just sharing a combo pattern here that is relished in most of the Konkani Saraswat homes in Southern parts of India and I will not run into details much and will share in the links to the particular dishes separately below, do try them out and relish with your family and enjoy the health benefits. Remember to always serve the rice porridge / pejja with a dollop of fresh homemade cow's ghee for added health benefits, Ayurveda gives in a lot of importance to ghee that is obtained from cow's milk, as it is loaded with good nutrients.
