Only – Fasting Food Event Announcement

Pari’s ‘Only Series’ of events is here at  Dinner recipes by Sonia’s Kitchen this month and this time it will be only Fasting Food. The reason for picking this as the Fasting Food month is that September month according to Hindu rituals has Navratri and which means fasting. Even otherwise there are a lot of festivals which come in the month of September and all of these definitely have fasting in some form or fashion. Now that said there are several ingredients which are definitely not to be used in the food during fasting and I will detail those in later below in the post but first the Giveaway announcement as well as the Rules for participation in the ONLY FASTING FOOD event.

Salt – This is only “Rock Salt” or called as Senda Namak

Flour – Kuttu ka Atta or Singada ( Water Chestnut Flour)

Vegetables – potato, tomato, lauki or “bottle gourd”, kakdi or “Cucumber”, carrot, sweet potato

Special things that you can eat – sabudana or “Pearl sago” and chaulai or “Amaranth”
