While enjoying the Spring season, we cannot wait to experience the ‘Festival of Colours’. Holi is one of the biggest festivals and is celebrated across India.
The festival not only resonates with the victory of good over evil but symbolises the eternal union of Radha and Krishna.
It is one of the festivals when sweet delicacies are prepared at every home. Holi sweets and snacks are loved by many and are a means to show off culinary skills.
It is made with balls of cottage cheese simmered in thick milk syrup. It can be served both hot and cold. Besides you can add saffron and pistachios to add flavour to your Rasmalai.
As the name suggests, Besan Laddoo is made from Besan. The one best thing is that you don’t have to worry about the quality of mawa. It can be stored for longer periods.
To try bhang innovatively, you can make bhang gujiya by adding cannabis powder to mawa. You can also knead it in the dough, in that case, the gujiya will look green.
Kheer is the popular rice pudding that finds an upper hand in almost all festivals. It is believed that it is auspicious to cook kheer and thus finds a place in the holi platter as well.
