Hayagreeva maddi
Lord Hayagriva is an avatar of Lord Vishnu. He is the God with human body and horse head. It is said that a goldsmith was making an idol of Lord Ganesha. But each time idol ended up with a horse's head. Ultimately he got tired and threw away the idol. The same night Lord Hayagriva appeared in Madhwa saint Guru Sri Vadiraja's dream and asked him to receive the idol from that goldsmith. Lord Hayagriva also appeared in the goldsmith's dream and asked him to become a disciple of Sri Vadiraja. Chana dal is favorite of horses, Sri Vadiraja made an offering of chana dal cooked with Jaggery and coconut. This is called as maddi in kanada. Since then maddi is known as hayagriva maddi.

Nutritious Delicious Kheer Nutritious Delicious Kheer
After enjoying a simple yet delicious lunch at my parents' a few years ago as I sat chatting with my mother, I asked her " Meethein mein kya hain ? " She smiled at me, got up and vanished from the room . I was expecting a bowl of ice cream or some mangoes but instead she appeared with this bowl and said, " Lo, Kheer Khao !" Since it was an extremely hot, humid day, I happily grabbed the bowl and indulged in this bowlful of goodness. While polishing it off, I had already guessed a few ingredients of this unique kheer, but I loved it so much that I got her to immediately share the recipe with me which she had adapted from a recipe she chanced upon on one of the cookery shows on a Marathi Channel on TV which she follows dillegently. It is a gem of a recipe... healthy, tasty and absolutely worth trying so I am sharing it here.
