Ganesh Chaturthi 2024: Prasad for Ganpati
Festivals are known for their prasad and vibrant atmosphere. As we prepare to celebrate Ganesh Chaturthi 2024, also known as Vinayaka Chavithi, we need various types of prasad for Ganpati. During festive times, people enjoy traditional recipes. Therefore, we are presenting the top 5 regional recipes to enjoy at home during Ganesh Chaturthi 2024. Let’s take a look at the bhog or prasad for Ganpati that you can easily prepare this festive season.
Bappa’s Favourite Modak
If you’re looking for Bappa’s most favorite sweet, Modak tops the list. You can either make Ukadiche Modak, which is a classic steamed version, or Fried Modak, a variant of it. Prepare the filling with jaggery, grated coconut, and Mava or condensed milk. Make a dough from rice flour or refined flour and shape it into Modak, filling it with the prepared mixture. Use it as Bhog or Prasad for Ganpati and enjoy this festival with lip-smacking Modak.
Puran Poli
Puran Poli is another traditional dish from Maharashtra that is used as Prasad for Ganpati. It is a flatbread filled with chana dal and jaggery. You can make Puran Poli at home and use it as Bhog for Ganpati. This Ganesh Chaturthi sweet is enjoyed by both Maharashtrians and non-Maharashtrians and is often served hot with additional ghee.
Shrikhand
Shrikhand is a creamy Indian dessert that is delicious to the core. Made with strained yogurt, saffron, powdered sugar, cardamom, and nuts, it is served as Prasad for Ganpati. Most people relish this dessert with wheat puri. You can find this traditional Indian dessert in Gujarati and Marathi thalis.
Payasam
Payasam, also known as Kheer or Payesh, is a popular pudding across India and Ganpati loves this dessert. You can make this pudding with milk and rice, milk and vermicelli, milk and sago, or milk and broken wheat. Bring the milk to a boil, then add sugar or jaggery, cardamom, saffron, and your choice of rice, vermicelli, sago, or broken wheat. Serve it as Bhog and enjoy it either hot with puri or as a cold pudding.
Banana Sheera
For Prasadam, Banana Sheera is a popular choice in Tamil Nadu and Kerala. To cook this delectable Banana Sheera, you will need ripe bananas, ghee, semolina, cream of wheat, nuts, jaggery or sugar, and milk or water. It takes very little time and you can cook it just like regular Sheera. The only addition is, you need to mash the bananas, then add them when the semolina has absorbed the water completely. Garnish with your favorite nuts and use it as Bhog for Ganpati.
Additionally, you can make Motichoor Ladoo, Coconut Ladoo, Barfi, Basundi, Moong Dal Modak, Moong Dal Halwa, Mawa Gujiya, and other sweets for Ganesh Chaturthi 2024.
