I miss being in India for the festivals and one thing I greatly miss during this festival is chewing on fresh, juicy Sugarcane that comes just harvested from the fields. As a child I remember spending hours outside chewing the karumbu! Also I love the part where we bring our cow inside the house for doing the maatu/Cow Pooja. the poor cow would be so scared to enter the house. I would be waiting for the time when they bring the cow in. I am sharing few of the recipes that I have in my space for the festival.
