Sri Krishna Janmashtami is on August 28th and with the date nearing I am posting my collection of Janmashtami recipes which would be useful for the festival preparations. Every region prepares different varieties for Krishna Jayanthi while many prepare only poha(atukulu) based items as it is the most favourite food of Lord Krishna. You can prepare various savoury snacks and sweets ahead of the festival and offer it as Naivedyam to Krishna and on the festival day you can prepare items like Atukula upma, Atukula Payasam, Gojju Avalakki, Kobbari Atukulu, Mosaru Avalakki or Atukula Dosa along with home made butter.
