Festival Food

Collection of Indian festival food recipes.

Every Indian festival involves lots of food. From Ganesh Chaturthi to Hoil, I celebrate all festivals at home and obviously, cook lots of food. As a tradition, we offer the food cooked on festivals to God before consuming it. When offering to God, the food is not tasted while cooking, yet every time they taste perfect. Festival foods include not just sweet dishes or desserts, but also a range of rice dishes, vegetables, and dal. A complete meal is offered to the deity during festivals. None of these dishes have onion or garlic in them and are made with ghee when offered as Prasada.
