Bellam Undrallu Vinayaka Chavithi Naivedyam

Bellam Undrallu or Bellam Kudumulu is one of the traditional South Indian recipes. Its main ingredients are semolina, coconut and jaggery, both of them are rich in nutrients.

Bellam Undrallu Recipe

In order to give a rich experience, I have added both jaggery and sugar at equal proportions. Semolina is cooked like gooey mass and cooled down to make small laddus or undrallu. These balls are then cooked further in jaggery syrup.

Ganesh Chaturthi is a festival of food and masti during 11-day celebrations. Usually, it is celebrated in Bhadrapada masa, the 4th day of Hindu lunar calendar. Although this is a food festival, I recommend you to focus on nutritional recipes.
