famous sweets of Gujarat

Being a Kutchi Gujarati, we preach Jhulelal and Jhulelal Jayanti is incomplete without the prasadam of Lapsi. Fada ni Lapsi is made by roasting broken wheat in ghee and cooking it with water or milk and finally adding sugar. This traditional recipe is subtly flavored with cardamom and has an intense aroma. Be it a family function, auspicious occasion, office pot party or just comfort food.

Golpapdi or Mohanthal has been a part of it always, at least in my life and I am sure in most Gujarati households. These melt-in-the-mouth desserts are made by roasting flour in oodles of ghee and finally garnished with dry fruits. They sure are a treat to the palate! More than the set cubes, I love Garam Golpapdi popularly known as Sukhadi. The taste of melted gur in ghee roasted wheat flour with milk is extremely delectable and irresistible.

Gujarati Sweet Festival Recipes

I remember my father boiling milk since 5 am so, that the gas range would be free before my mother gets up and starts cooking a grand meal for Raksha Bandhan or any special occasion. Basundi a creamy, luscious Gujarati dessert of thickened milk is similar to the North Indian rabdi. The addition of almonds and pistachios adds a bite to it, we even add chironji to it. Taste best when eaten with piping hot, deep-fried puri and any aloo shaak. Giving a twist to the authentic Basundi, try your hands on Pineapple Basundi an innovative fruity flavored tempting dish.

Gujarati Sweet Mango Recipes

Come summers, I and my brother not only waited eagerly for vacations but also for the arrival of the king of fruits, mango. Starting from May till the end of June, we ate Mangoes and Mango Custard. Doodh Keri is what we fondly call it, my mother made it and kept bowls of them in the refrigerator and we would relish it in the sunny afternoons. Aam raas drinking competition with cousins was a regular affair. Also, shrikhand got upgraded to Aamrakhand.
