Hi Guys,

Wish you all Happy Makara Sankranti. During this occasion we can plan together and prepare some special dishes.

I got this Idea today to prepare some special dishes for tomorrow. My plans are like this:

Generally on festivals in South India we prepare Shavige Payasa, Kosambari, Chitra Anna. Along with these we can prepare Sweet and Khara Pongal. I guess preparation of Payasa, Kosambari and Chitra Anna (Lemon rice) will not take much time. But the preparation of Sweet and Khara Pongal is time consuming. PB is an expert in preparing Menasinakayi Bonda (Chilli Bhajji), I request PB to prepare this as well.
If have any suggestion please let all of us know. I am not asking anyone to join us in this occasion, it is your personal interest. Sorry guys for sharing this idea very late. You can also invite others who are not copied in this mail to join us. I will call my mom tomorrow and get the recepies for Sweet Pongal and other stuffs.

Sorry for those who didnt understand some Kannada words as I dont know the English equivalent for some words.

Thanks

Raghavendra
