'Whatever you do, whatever you eat, whatever you offer or give away, and what ever
austerities you perform - do that as an offering to me' (Krishna speaking to Arjuna, his dear
devotee in the Bhagavad - gita.)

only we have food at home. This simple krishna prasadam is an offering in ISKCON temple
and they distribute this prasadam among the devotees all over the day.and also in
Madhura(Krishna birth place) temple they serving this as a annaprasadam(annadanam) and in
both temples they serve this in small almond leaf cups(donne) and very very hot hot
When i first tasted this in ISKCON temple from that time I made this as my fasting day dinner
because this is very light and not much oil and helthy too
while doing fasting for full day and make this in the evening for dinner will give you a very
instant energy.this should be like semi liquid not thick like pongal. I hope you all like this.
