Happy Yugaadi to everyone! Yugadi is beginning of the new year for us.

Without consuming the mixture of Neem and Jaggery, our traditional Ugadi celebration is not complete in karnataka.

Bevu-Bella signifies that we have to give prominence to both Joy and sorrow, which is inevitable in everyone’s life path. In fact, the flavors are just that – bitter and sweet – resulting in “bittersweet”.

Every region has its own variation for preparing Bevu-Bella. This variation is traditionally followed from my mother-in-law with North-Karnataka influence.

For the recipe, please watch the video.
