The spread featured popular savoury snacks such as murukulu, chekkalu, and garelu, staples during Sankranti festivities. Sweet dishes made with jaggery formed a major highlight, including ariselu, bobbatlu, sunnundulu, and kajjikayalu. Alongside these were numerous vegetarian and non-vegetarian preparations, ranging from rice varieties to richly spiced curries and accompaniments.

The Tenali family went far beyond the usual customs, spending days preparing a vast array of dishes that showcased the diversity of Andhra cuisine.
