This Dish is traditionally prepared during the Tamilian harvest festival which is offered to Sun God, Nature and also farm animals. It is a Thanks giving dish to God. We have prepared with Varagu Arisi (Kodo Millet) instead of rice . It is a healthier version of Ven Pongal. This Kodo Millet contains lot of fibre, minerals and vitamins.
