Explanation

The traditional Onam meal is called Onasadya, which is a elaborate vegetarian feast served on banana leaves. It typically includes rice (boiled rice), thoran (dry vegetable dish with coconut), olan (ash gourd and cowpeas in coconut milk), kalan (sour curry with yam and plantain), pacchadi (sweet and sour side dish), and prathaman (kheer/payasam dessert). Appam and stew is a Kerala breakfast but not specifically the Onam meal. Idli-sambar is South Indian but not Kerala's Onam tradition.
