In Kerala, Onam is a holiday that is cheerfully observed by members of all communities. Kerala celebrates Onam, a colourful Malayali harvest festival, every year. Onam sadhya is also the most celebrated aspect of the entire event because it not only brings together 25 different foods on a single large banana leaf, but it also promotes the concept of societal harmony and peace.

In Malayalam, the word "sadhya" for "feast" denotes an exotic feast. Every family member is expected to participate in the Onam Sadhya or Onasadhya preparations. More than 60 ingredients are usually included, along with 26 distinct and delectable curries, fried veggies, sweet desserts, and other meals.

Beetroot pachadi: This is a slightly sweet dish made with boiled beets and plain yoghurt. In various regions of Kerala, there are numerous variations prepared from the same basic recipe.
