| According to Sri Lankan custom, people are not confined to eat only milk rice. The Avurudu table which comprises a number of sweet items, is a major decorative part of the new year festival. Among the sweet items of the Avurudu table Konda Kevum, Kokis, Asmee, Mun Kevum and Athirasa are prominent. In addition, it can be observed that there are sweet items which are particular to different areas. For example, Unduwel or Pani Walalu and Naran Kevum in Kandy, Kalu Dodol and Mungedi in Dakunu Giruwapattu and Ruhunu Magampattu areas, Kiri Roti and Amara kevum in Sath Koralaya, and Thala or Kaju Aluwa in Nuwara Kalaviya can be especially cited. In Chillaw area, house-wives used to prepare Meegamu Aluwa for the Avurudu table. |
