Navarathri is a special occasion for Indians. This is a festival where Indians celebrate the days with various delicious navarathri recipes. Navarathri celebrations last for nine days and the preparations often start several days before this.
Sweets are the main attraction of Navarathri recipes. Most of the dishes are sweet in flavor, while other tastes also get a place on the dining table. The dishes are mostly prepared in houses and distributed among dear and near ones.
Navarathri recipes are famous for the wide mixing of tastes and aroma. Readymade navarathri recipes are available in shops all over the country during the season.
Sweets are mostly made of ghee, sugar and milk and fill the air with their sweet aroma. According to the tradition, they make special dishes for all the nine days of the celebration.
The navarathri recipes in different parts of the country differ greatly. The south Indian and north Indian dishes have varied tastes, though some dishes are similar.
Most of the navarathri recipes last for several days, even after the celebrations are over. The ingredients like ghee add to the long life of the sweets and other dishes made for navarathri. Indians prepare these days during the off seasons as well.
