One of the largest states in the country in terms of size, Rajasthan also offers a huge platter for us to gorge on. Beyond the sandy deserts of Jaisalmer and the royal architecture of the Maharajas of Jaipur and Jodhpur, there exists a rich and robust feast in the kitchens of Rajasthani households. My recent trip to Udaipur was a marvelous treat to the taste buds wherein I devoured dal baat churma, gatte ki subzi and ghevar to my heart’s content. On the last day, we dined at a traditional Rajasthani restaurant for lunch and since then, I haven’t been able to forget the taste of that laal maas.
I was reminded of the good times in Rajasthan when Kim Sharma took to her Instagram stories to share glimpses of her Valentine’s Day treat. Vacationing at the Rambagh Palace in Jaipur, the Mohabbatein actor was seen enjoying her time with her long-time boyfriend and leading tennis player, Leander Paes. The two had a ball during their stay in Jaipur but what caught our eye was the authentic Rajasthani platter that the two relished on Valentine’s Day. Here’s what they were having.
This sugary treat is nothing short of heaven on earth. The crunchy and crispy outer layer is dipped in sugar syrup and garnished with chopped nuts. This khoya dessert is a famous sweet of Rajasthan.
