Hello and namaste friends!
Deewali is just around the corner and we all are excited for this festival. A time for celebration , family, friends, sweets , diyas , lighting and crackers has just arrived.
Five days festival will start from tomorrow. Tomorrow is Dhanteras, a day dedicated to wealth and prosperity. On this day people purchase metals and other things. Next day choti deewali and after that the biggest day deewali.
On the next day of deewali is the day for govardhan pooja and last day for bhai duj. So next 5 days for the fun and celebration.
Deewali prep:
Some people may be engaged in removing dust from every corner of house. Actually, preparation for deewali start a month in advance in most of houses. I think most of us done this task for this year and ready to welcome goddess 🙂 After all this is the biggest festival for us.
Many people will be busy in shopping for new clothes, other necessities items for home & pooja and sweets boxes for family and friends.
And some are busy in cooking sweets and snacks at home like me 😜 . Deewali is incomplete in the absence of cooking tasty treats.
There are many items to make for deewali and in one day it is not possible to make all things. There are also countless other things to be managed on that day.
So we made some snacks and sweet today.
Today we make mathari, patha and shakkar pare.
Are all these made at your home too?
These are shakkar pare made with wheat flour and jaggary. Sweet and delicious in taste 🤤
These are mathri or mathi made with maida. It is a kind of flaky biscuit . Mostly enjoyed as a tea-snack😊
These are petha, rajsthani sweet. Made with maida and sugar syrup.
These all are deep fried so randomly we cook it and enjoy it 😀
Before deewali one day we also enjoyed dal vada . So today, we enjoyed these super tasty dal Vada cooked by my grandmother in law😍
As you can see today was busy, tasty and nice day for me .
Next two days we will make some more delicious food 😁
Which i will share in my upcoming post :-)
How are your deewali preparation going? I hope it is going well. And what special you are going to cook this deewali?
Also wish that this deewali brings lots of happiness and prosperity to you and your family 😊
