Pesara Punukulu by the very name I remember good olden days when my mother used to prepare them and offer as naivedyam to Goddess in the Navaratri days . She used to do pooja in the morning and evening and offer different naivedyam and give us the prsadam . She had such a lot of patience fasting the whole day and having only prasadam. Its because of her pooja and blessings that we all her children are happily enjoying with our families.
