** I have often mentioned about these festive occasion which is a very auspicious and followed by allmost all Konkani GSB Saraswats. All of these ie Mahalasa Narayani Shashti (my kula devi day)- Manjeshwar Shashti (Ananteshwar temple)- Dahisar RatHa Saptami (in Mumbai)- Subrahmanya Champa Shasthi fall on the same day and being Margashirmasa/ Dhanurmasa month which we fondly call as Khichidimasa everybody prepares sweet khichidi for Naivedyam today and in many homes throughout the month in different varieties.
** Without running into more details as I have written about them on each festive period for years before I am sharing my this year’s Naivedyam which I was fortunate enough to be able to prepare. I am really feeling blessed for having done this much, though I have been doing more before, but them these days somehow I am unable to carry on much work. But with faith miracles do happen, so today, I felt fine to do the following dishes as Naivedyam/ Prasada Jevana (meal). Enjoy visuals, Stay Safe, Stay Blessed, Spread Happiness.

** For “Kokum Taak (Buttermilk)” Recipe, I followed an instant method. I used Aagal a kokum concentrate available in stores. You just need to add it on to any dish you desire to add kokum and it serves the purpose. I came across this recently and after that I always use the same. Just beat one cup of thick curds with 2 cups of water and ¼ cup of kokum aagal well. Check and add in more water if necessary. Add some finely chopped fresh coriander leaves to the same along with a few crushed green chillies, a dash of hing powder and jeera powder and mix well. Allow to rest for some time and serve as it is or you can sieve the same and then serve.
