Adhirasam or jaggery doughnut is a type of Indian sweet from Tamil cuisine. This recipe as a long history of popularity in Tamil civilization. It is the most popular sweet made in every South Indian household during Diwali festivals, weddings, and other major religious and non-religious events.
According to inscriptions from the 16th century Vijayanagara emperor Krishnadevaraya's time, the sweet was made from rice flour, jaggery, butter, and pepper. At the annual festival at the Panchavarnesvar Temple in Nallur (located near Kumbakonam, Tamil Nadu), an offering of 6000 Adhirasams along with 6000 vadas is made to the Gods; the entire lot is cooked in the temple kitchen between sunrise and 11 pm, for the prayers that take place at midnight. It is most common Diwali sweet preparation for Tamilians.
Adhirasam is popular as an offering to the gods during puja prayers, both at home and in temples in Tamil Nadu. (wiki)
I dedicate this recipe to my mother who taught us how to make Athirasam in her own unique way. It is her favourite sweet and it is the very first Diwali sweets made in my house as per tradition. The recipe is almost the same anywhere you go, but the methodology is very crucial in making the best Athirasam.
So here I have shared what my Mother passed on to me and her mother before her.
Thank You
