Karwa Chauth 2023: Married women observe the fast of Karwa Chauth for the long life and happy life of their husbands. After the moon rises in the evening, there is a tradition of breaking the fast by drinking water and then eating food. After spending the whole day without eating anything, when they get a chance to eat in the evening, women prefer fried, spicy food. Which no doubt looks fun to eat, but there is every possibility of it causing digestive upset. In such a situation, so that digestion does not get spoiled after the fast, break the fast with these things instead of biryani, kachori, and puri.

1. Dry Fruits Kheer
The plate of Karva Chauth is incomplete without sweets and the fast is broken only by eating something sweet after drinking water. For this, various types of sweets, things like Malpua, Rasgulla, or Halwa are made, but these deep-fried things made in ghee and sugar can spoil your digestion. In such a situation, you can prepare kheer for dry feet. It also contains plenty of nutrients along with healthy fats, which can help in keeping you active after the fast.

Prepare healthy kheer like this

- For kheer, roast makhana, cashew nuts, almonds, chironji, and pistachios in ghee and grind them.

Boil milk in a pan and add date pulp to it. Finally, add the powder prepared from dry fruits to the kheer.

- Cook the kheer for 15-20 minutes and serve it hot.

2. Vegetable Pulao
After fasting, you can satisfy the craving for spicy food with vegetable pulao. Pulao prepared with lots of vegetables is a healthy option in every way.

Prepare Pulao like this

- Chop potatoes, carrots, capsicum. Take out peas and cheese separately to add to the pulao.

- Heat oil in the cooker. Add spices to it and fry lightly, then add vegetables and cook for a while.

- When there is still some time left to cook the vegetables, then add pre-soaked rice to it along with salt.

- Let there be two whistles. Your delicious pulao is ready.

3. Cucumber Raita
If there are more fried items in your Karva Chauth dinner, then eating them may cause digestive upset. For this, keep cucumber raita also on the menu. Which is good for digestion.

Prepare raita like this

- Grate the cucumber.

- Mix this grated cucumber in curd.

- After this add black salt to it.

- Add asafoetida and cumin seeds to the raita.
