Mahashivratri special Upwas Thali

Mahashivratri special Upwas Thali

Today we are making upwas thali on the occasion of Mahashivratri. We already have seen upwas thali recipes. This is yet another delicious addition to the list. This thali contains sabudana khichadi, ratalyacha kis, kavathachi chutney, shengdanyachi amti. Many people don’t eat bhagar or vrat ke chaval on Mahashivratri. So I have skipped it from our menu. Also it is important to have kavathach on Mahashivratri. Kavath means wood apple or belache fal. So I have included that too in this thali. You can try thist hali at home.

Mahashivratri is celebrated in the Marathi month Magha on 14th day of Krishna paksha. This is one of the auspicious festivals of Hindus. Lord Shiva is worshiped in this day and seek his blessings. This thali is easy to make and tastes nice. T
