Wish you all a very happy Deepavali/Diwali.
Gulab Jamun must be one of the most loved sweets in India. These days it is very easy to make them at home using ready made Gulab Jamun mixes, but few years ago, that was not the case. I used to make them from milk. It was a long [...]]]></description>

After making so many sweets, I thought it is time for some deep frying. I had bought some sweet potatoes last week, as I like to eat boiled sweet potatoes. But they sat on the counter without being touched. Then I saw this shankarpali recipe in a book. So I thought of giving it a [...]]]></description>

I am not sure how many of you had the same feelings, but even though I tried my best, I could not get into a Diwali mood this year. For me, Diwali means my dad bring out his colored light bulbs &#38; akashgud/akash butti and tie them neatly on our front porch. Then in the [...]]]></description>

This year I had decided to make all the important dishes that can be associated with Diwali. Many of my readers had asked for this recipe and also, once I prepared the sweet version, I had to make the spicy or khara(Kannada) or theek(Konkani) version. These were a favorite of my family.
This shankarpal was a [...]]]></description>

GooD (pronounced go-o-D) shankarpal must be another signature sweet made for Diwali in many Marathi/Konkani homes. Last year I had tried these for the first time. But then, I forgot to take pictures, so I could not post it here. I don&#8217;t make these dishes very often &#8211; once a year is also a very [...]]]></description>
