Karthigai Deepam or Thirukkarthigai is a Tamil Hindu Festival,
celebrated during the Tamil month Karthigai, that is second half of November or
first half of December. This Karthigai Deepam or Thiruk karthigai is also
celebrated in Telugu Hindu Families and in all Hindu temples.
There are many special foods prepared during this festival. The
main recipes made during this period are
Pori Urundai / Aval Pori Urundai
Pori Urundai is otherwise the Puffed Rice Ball made out of puffed rice and jaggery syrup. As we were seeing earlier, during the Karthigai Deepam time these sort of recipes are made to offer to God during that day.
Usually, Maavilakku is offered during Karthigai Deepam, but In Nagarathar families it is also offered to God on Aadi Velli, Thai Velli and Purattasi Sani days.
Karthigai Deepam is fast approaching. So I tried arisi pori urundai. Came out very well. I have already posted aval pori urundai.
Nei Appam
Nei Appam is made during karthigai deepam and Krishna jayanthi in tamil Hindu families. It is normally made by soaking raw rice for about an hour and then grinding it along with jaggery.
Pottukadalai Urundai

Milagu Adai / Karthigai Adai Recipe
Most of the people in South India make Milagu Adai neivedhayam for Karthigai Deepam. We Don’t have this custom. But for my viewer’s request I made this adai. It came out well and the taste was also good.
