We're sure that most of you have eaten it at some point in your life.
But do you know the names of the dishes served during the Onasadhya (Onam feast)?
Let's help you out.
A traditional Onam Sadhya includes choru (boiled rice), sambar, rasam, buttermilk, nendran (banana) chips, pappadam (papad), mango and lime pickle, inji puli (tamarind-ginger pickle) and vegetable dishes like avial, thoran, olan, pachadi, eriserry, kootu curry and kaalan.
