ABOUT Pakhala RECIPE

"Pakhala" For many of you this word must be out of your food dictionary. This is an authentic preparation from Odisha to cool down during the scorching summer heat. A soul food for Odias which is found almost in every house on a summer day. You can find this dish at Puri Jagannath temple though it's not a part of the offerings to Lord Jagannath.
