Sadya My favorite


Sadya means banquet in Malayalam. A Sadya is traditionally a vegetarian meal served on a plantain or banana leaf, people eat sitting cross-legged on the floor. Sadhya can have up to 24 dishes served in it.
The dishes are plain boiled rice, many curries, papadum, plain yogurt or buttermilk, banana or plantain chips, and two or more sweet dishes. The curries are made of different vegetables and have different flavourings. They can be made of yogurt, bitter gourd, mango, jaggery, etc.
There is a specific place for each item on the plantain leaf. For example, the pickles are served on the top left corner and banana on the bottom left corner.
All the dishes are served on the plantain leaf; it requires a special skill to eat the food. The whole palm and fingers of the hand have to be used in the form of a ladle to lift the food from the leaf and eat it without spilling it.
The meal is always followed by vettila murukkan, chewing of betel leaf with lime and arecanut. This aids in digestion of the heavy meal and also cleanses the palate.
