India is a country where we celebrate various festivals of every religion and community. Be it Holi, Diwali, or the festival of Eid, people celebrate every festival together. Now when the festival of Lohri is coming in a few days, its excitement has also started appearing in the markets. Although the festival of Lohri is celebrated mainly in Punjab, it is also seen with great enthusiasm in other states.
On the day of Lohri, people dress up in a traditional manner. Just as every festival is incomplete without food, in the same way, food also has great importance in this festival. If you are also inviting guests to your home during this Lohri festival, then you can prepare some traditional dishes for them in advance. There are some food items, without which the festival of Lohri will seem incomplete.
Gajak
The festival of Lohri is celebrated with jaggery and gajak. Without these sweets, the real taste of Lohri does not come. In such a situation, prepare Gajak for the festival in advance.
Sesame laddus
There is a custom of eating sesame seeds during winter season. In such a situation, try to prepare sesame laddus for the festival in advance. So that you do not have to do much work on festival days.
Groundnut
Eating hot roasted peanuts is a different pleasure in winter. In such a situation, prepare peanuts for your family in advance, so that you can enjoy it in winter.
Jaggery pudding
If you are thinking of making something tasty and also healthy, then you can prepare jaggery halwa. Eating jaggery in winter provides a lot of benefits to the body. In such a situation, this halwa made of ghee, semolina, jaggery, and dry fruits will prove to be a perfect dessert on the day of Lohri.
Revadi
During the winter season, you will easily find Revdi made of sesame seeds and sugar or jaggery in almost all the markets. In such a situation, the festival of Lohri remains incomplete without Revadi. On the day of Lohri, when Agnidev is circled, Revadi is also offered to the fire.
