Onam is Kerala's major annual festival

Onam is t.he major festival in kerala.Onam festival although it is known to all, even then I wish to mention one line that according to legends, the festival is celebrated to commemorate King Mahabali, whose spirit is said to visit Kerala at the time of Onam. Further, it is a harvest festival. Anyway, few dishes which I enjoyed during Onam inter alia are a) Chor which is a variety of red rice. I personally feel if anyone has not tasted this variety of rice then please taste it, b) Morru Kachiyatha is prepared by boiling curd with black sesame seeds, shallots, ginger and garlic, c) Avial is a mixed vegetables prepared with grated coconut and coconut oil and milk, d) Kichadi, although it is called Kichadi but preparation is different than Bengali preparation. It is prepared with spicy curd and vegetables which can be ridge gourd, cucumber, bitter gourd etc, e) Kootu Curry is a dry curry prepared with raw bananas and black Bengal gram mixed with grated coconut and local spices. And another one which I remember is Thoran which is a staple item in every Malayali household. Generally, it is prepared with cabbage, carrots and beans with grated coconut. In addition, varieties of local pickles, along with Rasam, Sambar, Pappad are served.

Still, I remember these tasty vis-a-vis eye-catching dishes. Also its aroma can never be forgotten. While I am writing this article, my mouth is full of water. Hope next year, I will enjoy the dishes. I personally feel simply going to a Malayali restaurant and eating food is totally different than dishes prepared at home during festival.

Wishing all the people in general and Malayali people in particular on this auspicious occasion, prosperous, peaceful and healthy life
