Indian or Hindu festival recipes are incomplete without highlighting recipes associated with them. There are certain sweets and desserts which are prepared to serve with friends and family, but they are few which are made as offering to beloved gods. One such purpose-based bhog recipe is panchakajjaya recipe made with 5 auspicious ingredients.

I have posted quite a few prasadam or bhog recipes, but these prasadam has to be top of everything. These can be prepared for any occasion, festival or celebration feast. Typically, these are favourite bhog recipes prepared for Lord Ganesha during the Chathurthi festival or during Ganapathi Homam/Havan. However, these bhog can also be offered to any beloved gods and for any occasion. Moreover, in this post, I have shown 3 types of panchakajjaya. Every state and region of South India has its own slight variations. These posted here are from my hometown of Udupi. If you feel I have missed any step or any ingredient please inform me. In addition, do inform me if it is done differently in your region or hometown do let me know and I would try to document it here.

Panchakajjaya Recipe 3 Ways | Ganesh Chathurthi Naivedya (2)Furthermore, some more related and additional tips, suggestions and variations to the panchakajjaya recipe. Firstly, in this post, there are 3 types of panchkadayi. Not all kinds have to be prepared and you can choose based on your preference. The most common one is the poha or avalakki panchakajjaya which can be prepared for all occasions. Secondly, with poha panchakajjaya, you may extend it by adding banana, fresh coconut water, sugarcane and even lemon zest. However, it is not a common ingredient and is not considered as part of the five main ingredients and can be ignored. Lastly, these bhog or prasadam recipes have to be prepared on the same day of the occasion and have to be offered on the same day. Do not prepare it overnight serve it the next day.
