Take it from a diehard foodie; Odia Ghanta is a celebratory dish that you should be raiding an Odia kitchen for at least once. And today is one such occasion – Garbhana Sankranti or Tula Sankranti. The other two occasions when most Odia households cook a Ghanta dish are Dutia/Dwitiya Ghanta (on Mula Ashtami)and Ghadaghadia Ghanta (on Samba Dashami) In Odisha, people like to eat a mixed vegetable dish on a regular basis. We Odias hardly cook single vegetable dishes, unless it’s stir fries or Alu Dum. We use vegetables in our Ghanta, Ambila, Dalma, Santula, Besara and even in Saag. Odias let the vegetables shine in their own glory; with minimal interference of spices. Garbhana Sankranti falls on the Hindu month of Ashwina (October), when the paddy fields are in their glorious best. Smelling beautifully and swinging slowly in the autumn breeze with a full ‘womb’ or Garbha.
