Karadaiyan Nombu or Karadayan Nonbu is a major Tamil festival which is celebrated at the time on Meena Sankranti or Sankramana. It is celebrated at the moment when Tamil month Maasi ends and month Panguni starts. Karadai is the name of a unique Nivedyam prepared on this day and Nombu means Vratham or Upavasam.The fast for Karadayan Vritham is observed from sunrise on the transition day when God Surya moves from Kumbha Rashi to Meena Rashi.
For the year 2022, Karadaiyan Nonbu falls on 14th March. As per our South Indian traditions, I have made the respective recipes for the occasion.
This is the Mantram that all ladies say before typing the yellow thread .
(Those who cannot read Tamil, kindly refer to my video , which has the Mantram mentioned in audio form).
NOTE: Also , kindly note that one of the ingredients in Vella Adai recipe is not Hing/ Asafoetida it is Ellakai Podi/ Cardamon Powder.
