Chaitra Navratri 2023: Enjoy These Foods While Fasting 

By Deepali Verma

The vrat ka khana can only be prepared using a few specific components, and it is advised to switch to a satvik diet during the fasts. Some of these foods could be sabudana, sendha namak, kuttu ka atta, singhare ka atta, and particular vegetables. When making your Navratri cuisine, there are many things you may do with just few components. 

Sabudana Khichdi 

During Navratri fasting, one of the most cherished Vrat dishes is sabudana khichdi composed of tapioca pearls, also known as sago khichdi in the Southern region of the country. 

Sabudana Kheer 

Sabudana is typically eaten during the fasting season of Navratri, and this recipe for sabudana kheer uses it to make a delicious dessert in just 30 minutes. 

Kuttu Atta Puri 

Aloo Bhaji pairs perfectly with these puris cooked with Kuttu ka Atta. Also delicious with a bowl of cool curd are these puris. 

Roasted Makhana 

On the list of popular Navratri-specific snacks are makhanas, commonly known as fox nuts. They can be used to make Makhane ki Sabzi or added to your kheer. 

Aloo ki Kadhi 

Here is a dish that we like all year long, but its main component, potato, and its preparation with mild spices make it a particular delicacy during Navratri. 

Vrat Ke Chawal 

Regular rice is not allowed to be consumed during the Vrat, as you may already be aware if you are observing the Navratri Fasts. For their fasting meals, many devotees prepare Varat Ke Chawal or Samai Ke Chawal. 

Sookhi Arbi 

All of your puris and rotis go wonderfully with this unique Navratri feast. Despite being cooked with gentle spices, it is wonderful. 

Singhare Atte Ka Halwa 

Another unique item for Navratri is Singhara atta, which is frequently substituted for wheat or other common grains. 

Kacche Kele ki Barfi 

Raw banana, sugar, and milk combined to make kacche kele ki barfi are healthy and delicious. 

Shakramandi chaat, one of the most well-known Navratri special dishes, is prepared with boiling and peeled sweet potatoes and garnished with lemon, rock salt, and chaat masala.
