Red Aval Kesari / Poha Kesari - Krishna Jayanthi Special


Here is a simple but healthy recipe to serve as prasadham / offering to Lord Krishna on the special occasion of Krishna Jayanthi.  In this recipe I have used red rice flakes to increase the nutritive content of the dish; instead, you can also use white rice flakes / poha (Hindi) / Aval (Tamil).

Here are the links for my other recipes using red rice flakes:
