Modakam or Vella Kozhukkattai is one of our favourite snacks back home, especially for my brother and I. In fact, we love pretty much anything made with jaggery. Although we don't restrict modakam to Vinayaka Chaturthi, it's a great time to make yours if you haven't already or are craving some.

Here are some easy recipes for dishes you can make this year to celebrate Ganesh (Vinayaka) Chaturthi this year. Click on the image or the links below to get to the recipes.
