Navaratri 2026 💫
Day-1
Happy Navaratri you all.! Stay blessed. In this video we will see my house kutty gollu and neivediyam for the day. I did say I already have coconut rice made with cauliflower rice in my page, swap it with rice, dressing it with crispy cashews along. And also Rava kesari. Let’s see Pachaipayaru (Green moong) Sundal. I will give measurement in the making method itself. Any doubts related to recipes are welcome in the comment box or DM.

Steps:
1. If you wish to soak green moong and cook- just soak for 4-5 hours and add water oil and cook for 1-2 whistles in instant pot or pressure cooker. If doing like me, wash the green moong well, add water, oil, and keep them in instant pot and set the high pressure cooking mode on 5 mins. If it’s not done, cook extra 2-3 mins. Manually release once it crosses 10-15 mins.
2. In a pan, add oil of your choice, 3/4 tsp mustard, 1 tsp Urad dal, 1/2 tsp cumin, an arch of curry leaves. Add the cooked moong, once lentils become golden in color. Add 1/2 tsp of asafetida powder, salt as needed and gently mix.
3. For the coconut mixture, add 1/3 cup of grated coconuts, 1/4 piece of ginger, 3 green chilies. Coarse grind. Add this to the Sundal. Gentle mix. In 2 mins Sundal is ready.

Do your neivediyam, and enjoy relishing the combo.! Hope you all like it. Happy 9 days. Don’t forget to use my hashtag for Navaratri series.
