A Sadhya (Banquet) is a very integral part of Kerala’s culture and has enough culinary clout to its credit. This grand vegetarian traditional feast should probably be on every person's "Essential List of 100 Things to Do in a Lifetime". When Brahmins came to Kerala and introduced Ayurveda, their medicinal vegetation influenced the cuisines of Kerala and naturally many of the dishes on the Sadhya has the Ayurvedic holistic approach to food.
The dishes prepared have an eclectic mix and vary in texture, taste and colour. Assorting the smorgasbord of food on a green banana leaf is ratcheting it up one notch. The freshness of it all is mind boggling. It's like a ticking time bomb of flavours, ready to explode on your palate. There is a specific place in the leaf for each of the item to be served followed by a course-wise serving of rice with gravy items. This Sadhya is usually prepared for lunch due to its sheer enormity and variety of dishes served therein. Satiation guaranteed!
The Sadhya spans the length and the breadth of vegetarian cuisine. Its spread can go up to 28 dishes at a time and sometimes even to a flabbergasting 64! This traditional feast of Kerala is amongst the most sought after and must haves of all who visit our shores. The Sadhya is not only prepared on festive occasions like Onam and Vishu but also for weddings and other special events.
I take immense pleasure in showcasing my native cuisine with a modern OPOS twist which makes it easier for you to prepare it easily and savour it in your dining rooms.
