Akkaravadisal is usually done on Adipuram. Apart from this, it can be done in the month of Margazhi as prasadam to Andal. Akkaradisal is made at the Srirangam Temple and the Srivilliputhur Andal Temple. It is made with raw rice, moong dal, jaggery and milk. It is prepared like pongal but the rice and moong dal are completely boiled in milk without adding any water. Need to add more jaggery and ghee than sweet pongal. 

Some tips to make delicious Akkaravadisal

  • Boil the rice and moong dal until it becomes mushy.
  • If you use a pressure cooker there is a chance of overflow so you can cook on the pot itself.
  • Once you added the milk, cook on low heat.
  • It will be delicious if you use thick milk without adding water.
  • You can add jaggery to the taste. 
  • When adding cardamom and cloves you can add a pinch of nutmeg powder and pacha karpooram.
