Jump to Recipe

Sabudana kheer or sago kheer is one of the easy vrat recipes.  It is also known as javvarisi payasam or sabbakki payasa. We make it with minimal ingredients mainly, sago, sugar and full cream milk. Generally, we make it during Navratre, Mahashivratri in February, Sawan fasting period. We fast on sawan Mondays during Jul-Aug.Navratri is twice an year for 9 days during Chaitra or Mar-Apr & Shardiya Navratri in Oct. Most people have been doing this intermittent fasting for ages.

Now, Navratri is here again. It is a time to pray, fast and meditate and thank Mata Rani for all we have received. Most of the year has again been lost to quarantine. This 2021 is a time to pray we all survive and live better. Most people visit temples during Navratri and listen to bhajans, hymns and chanting. This time let us just pray everyone stays safe.
