Daddojanam Prasadam Recipe with detailed instructions and photos. Daddojanam is one of the easiest prasadam recipes and it is prepared in the South Indian temples for almost all the festivals.
Today I am sharing this simple yet delicious recipe. If you have a sweet tooth, you can add pomegranate seeds which gives a nice sweet taste and enhances the flavor. Also, you can add sautéed onions, these onions will be crunchy and little sour gives a very nice texture. It is a great combo for Lemon rice even goes well with sambar rice too.
Not only it is famous as a prasadam recipe but also Daddojanam is the most common food in South India. Most South Indians prefer to end their meal with curd rice. Especially farmers when they are going to farms in the early morning, they use to take the leftover rice, mix with salt and curd in a mud pot and use to take it for lunch. Since they have kept in the mud pot, curd rice will be cool. After working in the hot sun when they have this chilled curd rice with some raw onions and green chilies.
