ఉగాది అంటే తెలుగు నూతన సంవత్షరం!!!!! మీకు అందరికి నందన నామ సంవత్శర ఉగాది శుభాకాంక్షలు!!!!!!  In sanskrit Yuga means era, Adi means beginning.Ugadi is one of the biggest festival of Telugites, it is also celebrated in Karnataka, Maharastra and Kashmir. We telugites during this festival, clean our homes, wrap ourselfs in traditional clothes and cook a special food and offer god, do prayer and listen to Panchanga sharavanam, means horoscope for the coming year! The special food made for this festival is Puran poli/Pappu purnam, baksha/roti stuffed with lentil halwa, Ugadi pacchadi, pesarappu payasam and mamidikaya pulihora (mango Rice). I cannot wait to nibble puran poli, some time I can even grab half a dozen of them and gobble up. Ugadi pacchadi is the special soup which is made out of shadruchulu ( 6 tastes). I'll post teh recipe of Ugadi pacchadi soon!!! now we will see the puran poli/pappu purnam preparation, with kandi pappu/Toor dal. Genarally it is prepared with sanaga pappu/ chana dal, but I ran out of chana dal.

Dip the mixture in a over night fermented batter(You can add little salt to this batter if you wish) and fry them in oil till it is crisp and golden brown.
