Happy Onam!

Onam is the ten-day harvest festival celebrated in Kerala. On the tenth day, Thiruvonam (today), we celebrate with a sadhya for lunch.

Sadhya is a variety of vegetarian dishes served on a banana leaf and eaten with the hand. The dishes are served on specific places on the banana leaf in a particular order as guided by tradition.

The sadhya follows the Ayurvedic principle of shad rasa (six tastes). Ayurveda believes that a perfect meal should have a balance of sweet, sour, salty, bitter, pungent and astringent. The balancing of these six tastes promotes equilibrium and a sense of wellbeing in mind and body afterwards.
