    I did a very simple pooja in the evening...Not well in the morning, so just pushed myself with whatever I could.

    20150917_190502.jpg 20150917_190439.jpg
    Made sweet kulukattai, sweet pidi kulukattai, paal kulukattai with coconut milk and sugar & Dhal vada.

    @shanvy - Kulukattai turned out to be super soft, couldn't control my excitement when it became me a huge hit at home with family and neighbors. I used the same flour though ;) Ganapathi bapa was gracious on me I guess :)))

    lovely decoration and ganpathi from all ..@pumpkin such a nice one..this is your first one back in india?? how do you feel..

    @sravanitenali kudos to you girl with a baby managing a diy ganapathi and the prasad.. keep it up..where there is a will the way paves...

    @parineetha what do i say..look at the shape of the kozhukattais and i love paal kozhukattai. have some dough in the freezer..and a can of coconut milk that my dh bought for himself, but did not know what to do and has dumped here..so maybe a good idea..

    And @gitasharma has also shared here ganapathi pooja pictures in her album..

    i did merge mine in a pandal nearby for visarjan. i initially thought of doing it in bucket of water and using it in my own plants..but it was not possible..the clay was not great..

    Ya @Shanvy you must try and indulge in the goodness of nice creamy texture of coconut milk..Paal kulukattai is one of my all-time favorite sweet. This is the first time I'm trying out myself, my Amma makes fantastic ones. when I'm there, I get to eat all delicious traditional desserts from coconut milk, all specially done for me yumsmiley

    @Shanvy - need a help in using the Thinai I got from a shop here. Its umi/husk is not fully removed, I made a pongal using it without knowing this pbm, but couldnt eat beyond 2 mouths. How can we make it eatable, i.e how do I remove the husk anduse it? Any idea please? This is my second attempt in thinai, first time I bought from my hometown, this one is from Bangalore still both the times its husk is intact. How are you all using it?

    @msm

    you get the processed thinai that is better. this takes a little effort.

    sprinkle water, wet and leave it for 15-20 minutes.. run it in the mixie..with the speed it would separate.say inching. (the same as idikaradhu with ulakkai and ural..) then in a winnowing plate you can remove the husk..

    do the same until you find it huskfree..
