Batate Gojju/Potato Raita

 Navaratri Series – Day 2 🌸

Maa Brahmacharini  — the second form of Goddess Durga, symbolizing penance, devotion, and wisdom. 🌿🙏

On this auspicious day, I’ve prepared Batate Gojju / Potato Raita for bhog — a dish I first tasted at Kannur Sree Venkatramana Mahamaya Temple during Navratri 💛

I was blessed to learn this recipe directly from the temple cook, and trust me, it’s simply divine😋👌

🌼 Offering this humble naivedyam to Maa Brahmacharini with gratitude and devotion.
