Republicworld.com lists five festive delicacies that can be prepared at home, with recipes varying by household and region. Key dishes include Ghewar, a honeycomb-like Rajasthani dessert finished with sugar syrup and rabri; Malpua, a syrup-soaked pancake served warm with rabri; and Kheer, a slow-cooked rice pudding. Savoury options such as Dal Kachori, a spiced lentil-filled pastry, and Mathri, a crisp flaky bite seasoned with ajwain and black pepper, balance the meal.
