Aluwa was always made on special occasions in a village by the hills. It was a simple treat, made from rice flour, jaggery, and a little cinnamon. The mixture was cooked, then cut into perfect square or diamond shapes. Each bite was sweet and crunchy, and the villagers believed that sharing Aluwa brought good luck for the year ahead. It wasn’t just food, but a gift of blessings that connected everyone in the community.
