We are in the modern era in which traditional food is slowly being replaced by Western food. These days you will hardly find people serving laddoos, kheer or any traditional desserts to their guests. It is considered old-fashioned and thus the market has taken that trend to make and sell unique desserts. No matter how modern we become, there is something we can’t compromise on and that is the taste of our laddoos and Kheer that our mothers used to make during festivals. This Diwali, let’s go back to our roots and try Indian classic desserts and surprise our guests with these wholesome desserts.

Besan Ke Laddoo

Remember the time when Besan ke Laddoo was more popular than Chocolates and our mothers used to prepare that at home? This Diwali ditch the chocolates and give your guest a box of homemade ladoos as a Diwali present. The aroma of roasted besan, filled with nuts and packed with desi ghee is no less than a wholesome dessert you can ever have.

Chawal Ki Kheer

Whether it’s a promotion, job offer or good results, our mothers used to make Kheer to celebrate the news. Kheer is not just an Indian dessert but an emotion that depicts happiness. Diwali is the perfect occasion to prepare Kheer. Kheer (rice kheer recipe) is a perfect combination of rice and milk, topped with almonds and nuts. You can garnish the Kheer bowl with saffron strings before serving it to your guests to make it a wholesome dessert for them.
