What is Amavasai?

Amavasya(Amavasai in Tamil) is known as the new moon day. Amavasya is a good day for paying respect to ancestors called tithi. Amavasai day is considered auspicious for the worship of forefathers and poojas are made. During this day after Tarpanam people used to make elaborate meals to offer our ancestors.

What to cook and What we should not Cook on Amavasai?

There is specific Thaligai(cooking) on Amavasya day . On that day recommended vegetables are Bitter gourd, Raw banana, Colocasia (Seppankizhangu),Senai kizhangu, Ladies finger, Snake gourd, avaraikkai, and White Pumpkin. ‘English’ vegetables are to be avoided-carrot, cabbage, cauliflower, beetroot etc.

There is science behind why we should not use these vegetables also there, during these days, the rays are passed inside the vegetables it is good to take the water content vegetable.
