Sri Rama Navami, the auspicious day where we celebrate the birth of Lord Rama is a popular festival all over India.

The prasadam/neivedhiyam is a pretty simple one and can be made in no time.

Preparation time – 5 minutes
Cooking time – none for panagam, 2 minutes for Neer more
Difficulty level – easy

  • Heat the oil in a small pan and add the mustard seeds to it. Let the seeds splutter and then add the curry leaves.
  • Add this to the whisked buttermilk mixture and mix well. Serve chilled!
