Kuruthola Perunnal


Kuruthola perunnal or Osana perunnal at Cochin always makes me remember some of my x'tian friends....and also Easter special 'Kozhukatta'......still I wonder how kozhukatta is related to Easter..........but it is during this time I had the best Kozhukattas from those christian houses..!

It's the main dish on the eve or morning of Palm Sunday-don't know why kozhukatta is made and how it is related to this occasion, but I think its like a custom, shared and passed on from generations.

Usually they say Osana Perunnal or Kuruthola Perunnal for Palm Sunday and since kozhukatta is a main dish, its also known as kozhuketta perunal...not a joke, I have heard this name on several occasions.

Easter ahead....will be back with more from those days.........!
