    Manathakkali vathal Sadam is a quick kalandha Sadam recipe prepared as a part of the postpartum/pathiya samayal recipe.

    Pathiya samayal

    “Pathiya samayal” focuses on a well-balanced menu for both moms and newborns. It is easy to digest and prevents colic in babies.

    Why manathakkali Poondu Sadam?

    Poondu is one ingredient that is very good for lactation. Manathakkali vathal is very good for health, it is an option used for postpartum Indian cooking. Ghee and sesame oil makes the rice flavorful and healthy - 10 minutes healthy rice.

    Can I dry roast manathakkali vathal

    Roasting vathal in oil and ghee makes it aromatic so it would recommend that.

    Shelf life of roasted berries

    It stays good for 3-4 days at room temperature. you can also coarse-grind the roasted ingredients and prepare manathakkali vathal podi if you are not comfortable biting sun-dried berries.

    How to make a perfect postpartum-friendly vathal Poondu Sadam?

    • Usually, for mixed rice, we keep rice fluffy but for this, we don’t. Rice is not mushy but not as fluffy as it is served for new moms. It should be easy to digest
    • Use ghee and sesame oil for cooking as it is good for new moms
    • You can adjust pepper according to your taste but avoid red or green chilli
    • Preferably chop the garlic into small pieces so that it gets fried well in ghee. Whole garlic can get fried quickly and the outer layer may look golden brown, but there is a high probability of raw garlic smell inside

    Variation for Manathakkali vathal rice - you can

    • Coarse grind sauteed sun-dried berries 
    • Saute Small onion 
    • Coriander powder, turmeric powder, or any spice of choice can be used
    • Hing, ginger powder can be added for extra flavor
