The sweets are usually made at home when there are some special or big occasions to make the occasions more cheerful and meaningful. Today, we’re going to talk about some of the most relished and easy-to-cook desserts here. 

Gulab Jamun

 

Gulab Jamun is one of the favorite sweet dishes in India that you’ll find in every other celebration. Or rather say the celebrations are incomplete without these little sweet treats. But this delicacy was first introduced to Indians during the late 16th century when the Mughal empire started in India. It has been inspired by a Persian dish that looks exactly like Gulab jamuns.

Cooking Method: Gulab jamuns are fried balls made with milk solids, flour and nuts. These balls are deep-fried until crisp and brown on the outside and then soaked in the pre-made sugar syrup that is flavored with saffron, cardamom, and rose water mostly. You might see a few chopped pistachios on top of these balls that enhance their beauty.

Gajar Ka Halwa 

Gajar Ka Halwa is one of the many sweet delicacies that was a gift from Mughals. They used the cooking method of Gajar Ka Halwa to make many other desserts. This recipe is warmly accepted by Indians in many Northern regions of the country and gained huge popularity due to its irresistible taste.  

Cooking Method: Gajar means ‘carrot’ in Hindi and Halwa refers to ‘sweet’ in Arabic which translates this dish as sweet carrots. It is made with grated carrots, sugar, milk solids, nuts and ghee. The dish tastes divine when all ingredients are combined and sauteed until the water evaporates completely.

Kheer 

Kheer is a twisted version of the ancient South Indian sweet dish. The different versions of this rice pudding can be seen in various other places including Iran, Afghanistan and Persia. But the Kheer we make in our Indian kitchen is worth every bit of your attention. 

Cooking Method: The warmest taste and aroma that accentuates when cooked is unparallel. The dish is made with milk, rice and sugar and cooked until gets thick creamy and rich. It is served hot or cold according to one’s preference with chopped nuts on top.
