Pazham nurukku & Rice Ada

Rice ada and pazham nuruku is mainly taken as breakfast on the Onam morning in malabar region. Pappadam is also taken along with these which gives a salty taste to the breakfast.


Preparation of pazhamnurukku
Cut 2 banana (nentra pazham) to pieces and boil it with 3 pieces of jaggery. This is for giving more sweet taste.

Rice Ada (Pancake)

It is a special breakfast for Onam. Normally rice ada is made using banana leaf. But as it is difficult to get banana leaf so I have used flat surface without using leaf or any paper. This one is a good tea time snacks also.
