Teej 2021 is just around the corner. A significant festival among the Hindus, Teej is celebrated to make the union of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. Hindu married women observe ritualistic fasts on this day for matrimonial bliss. While some observe nirjala vrat, others eat light, sattvik food throughout the day. Later in the day, women offer puja to Teej Mata and break their fast with delicious sweet and savoury foods. One classic mithai prepared during Teej is sweet kachori.
A Rajasthani delight, sweet kachori is a crispy, flaky dish with a stuffing of mawa and dry fruits. Finally, the kachori is dipped in sugar syrup and served. You can enjoy it both hot and cold. You can also infuse some saffron in the sugar syrup for flavour and aroma. Sounds delicious, right? So, what are you waiting for? Prepare this yummy delight and make Teej a delicious affair.
