The Taste of Temple-Style Puliyogare
Temple-style puliyogare is the tangy, sesame-rich tamarind rice distributed as prasada at South Indian temples — deeply aromatic and lightly spiced. Real puliyogare is all about the gojju — a slow-cooked tamarind paste matured with roasted sesame, peanuts, dry red chilli and jaggery until it is dark, glossy and intense. We mix it into cooked rice the temple way, finished with a crackling tempering. It keeps well, travels well, and tastes of South Indian festivals.
