Integrating flavours and food, Pakhala (ପଖାଳ) is a delicacy from Odisha that stands close to heart for many as it is more than a mere dish. Pakhala is rice that has been fermented and is kept in water along with curd and spices as seasoning. It is a meal that quenches one’s thirst during summer while simultaneously nourishing the soul. Pakhala with deep-fried and mashed vegetables or sea food embodies flavours of home as well as warmth of family traditions.
To honour this culinary wealth, Swosti Group of Hotels presents a special Pakhala Festival across its luxury properties, recreating the authentic flavours of Odisha:
