This convenient combination brings together the essential ingredients you need for a simple and authentic Krishna Jayanthi neivedyam, without the need for elaborate preparation.
What's Included
Aval - 75gms
Aval, also known as poha, flattened rice, beaten rice or rice flakes, is a traditional Indian pantry staple and an important ingredient in several South Indian festive preparations.
For Krishna Jayanthi, Aval can be offered directly as neivedyam or used to prepare traditional dishes such as Vella Aval and Aval Payasam.
Achu Vellam - 150 gms
Achu Vellam is traditional moulded jaggery made from sugarcane. It is commonly used in South Indian sweets, payasam and festive preparations.
For Krishna Jayanthi, Achu Vellam can be offered along with Aval as neivedyam or used to sweeten traditional preparations such as Vella Aval.
A Simple Krishna Jayanthi Neivedyam
You don't always need to prepare an elaborate dish for Krishna Jayanthi.
