There is no perfect or an imperfect way to celebrate a festival. It is all in our goof faith and belief. Every religion has some different and unique ways of celebrating and remembering their almighty..god…allah..jesus….Each one to its own!! But one thing that remains common is the food factor. We all try to woo God by offering their favorite dishes….sweet or savory. Without this a festival seems to be demotivated. It’s not that God has an appetite for food. It just signifies our feelings…devotion and gratification towards God….and so they say
FESTIVALS….. CELEBRATIONS and SWEET THINGS go together
just like dark chocolate and strawberries….coffee and biscotti…..wine and cheese!!
Let’s have a sweet beginning because we don’t really need a reason in the first place. In my books the 2 most auspicious sweet dishes that is associated with any kind of festivals or celebrations is Kheer and sheera. These 2 dishes are undoubtedly made at our place during any occasions…!!
Well who can say no to this Kheer fantasy parfrait!! It is an imperfect way to put up but a perfect way to fascinate God. Layered with mix fruits….rice kheer and whipped cream this dessert is highly addictive and it will not just stuff your face but it is seriously satisfying. It may look fancy but trust me it is loaded with our traditional charm and deliciousness. The fruits give a nice kick and the creaminess of the kheer parts sheer lusciousness to this dessert. We can spend our entire evening devouring this classic parfrait.
For me religious festivals and celebrations have become an important way to teach my children about how we can transform living with diversity from the superficial.
