KARADAIYAN NONBU ADAI(KARA ADAI) - SWEET AND SPICIER VERSION(UPPU ADAI)

KARADAIYAN NONBU ADAI(KARA ADAI) - SWEET AND SPICIER VERSION(UPPU ADAI)

Karadaiyan nonbu is a fasting performed by the married ladies in tamilnadu. The main motive to do this pooja is for the wellness of their husband.

I will try to write a  posted a detailed procedure and story of this pooja (which i know and follows)in tamil in my another blog kuzhaliyin pagirvugal as soon as possible.
Please check the below link for the details

The story behind this pooja is about the couple sathiyavan and savithri. Savithri is the person who first performed this  pooja to say thanks to the godess parvathi and yama dharma for  saving her husband.



The neivethiyam we prepare on this day is kara adai/ kaaradaiyaan nonbu adai. It is similar to our kozhukkattai but the shape and adding of karamani(Black eyed peas) is the difference.
KARADAIYAN NONBU ADAI(KARA ADAI) - SWEET AND SPICIER VERSION(UPPU ADAI)

We prepare two types of adai (kozhukkattai) , Sweet and spicier version. In both the versions we have to add karamani(Black eyed peas).

These two types of adais (sweet adai & upuu adai) will be offered to god along with butter as neivethiyam.

For this year the karaadaiyaan nonbu fasting comes on 14 th march in which the timing will be exactly of the tamil month maasi completes and panguni starts.
