Is there a lack of the utter sweet climax in your dinner routine? Do you wish you had a sweet addition to the dinner menu? Does your palette wait to rejoice that hint of sweetness after a long, delectable meal? Well, we know this feeling and we also know how difficult it really is to fight this desire away!
The importance of a sweet ending to every Indian meal is an unexplainable concept but a loved one. Without that sugared end, the meal not only feels incomplete but regardless of the bang on flavours, the meal does not feel satisfactory, agreed?
To help you end your day on a honeyed note, we have curated a list of desserts that you can make or force your mother to prepare and serve at the end of a yummy meal:
Karachi halwa
As the name suggests, its origin points to the city of Karachi in Pakistan. Unlike the other halwas like gajar or moong, the texture of Karachi Halwa is gelatinous more than grainy. Halwas of different kinds are usually always served during occasions in Indian households. Prepared with cornflour, sugar, water and topped with nuts, this Indian sweet is chewy and delicious!
Kala Jamun
Everyone, not only in India but across the globe, has definitely eaten gulab jamun at least once but, have you ever tried Kala Jamun? It is just like Gulab Jamun but the only difference is in the colour and texture. Kala Jamun, as the name suggests, is close to the shade of black. It is prepared with milk solids known as Khoya or Mawa. These are then made into balls and are deep fried in a sugar syrup that is thoroughly absorbed by the balls.
Kesar Peda
If you have ever been to a temple, you must have eaten pedas. These are round, bite-sized circles of heaven that will make you fall in love with its delectable flavours in the very first bite. This dish is prepared with Khoya or Mawa & Kesar and is bejewelled with chopped up pistachio. Kesar Peda is a breeze to prepare and pleasurable to eat.
Coconut Ladoos
Ladoos have been a common dessert consumed by Indians since 300-500 BCE. These are round balls of supreme flavour that are prepared by combining smaller round balls (boondhi). Originally these were prepared with boondhi but witnessed a number of variations over the years of its existence. Coconut Ladoo is one such variation that has also been around since a long time and brings a great flavour to your palette.
All these Indian sweets are not just of opulent flavour but are also equally effortless and hassle-free in their preparation process. Now, with this list, you never have to worry about your sweet cravings as these will easily satiate it. Enjoy eating and preparing these lovely Indian sweets!
