Avurudu Food
Thala Karali
Thala Karali is a popular Sri Lankan sweetmeat made from sesame seeds and jaggery, and widely consumed during the April Avurudu festive season.
Thala Karali is the perfect guilt-free sweet to indulge in, with sesame seeds being a rich source of nutrients like calcium and Vitamin B1 and many nutritionists recommending substituting sugar with jaggery, due to its low calories and having a slower rate of absorption to sugar.
