What We Loved
Bhune Bhutte ka Halwa—a sweet made from roasted corn cooked slowly with ghee, milk, and sugar. A rustic treat from North India that celebrates the monsoon harvest.
Anarsa, brought by members Taiyaba and Mantasha, is a sweet biscuit popular across Nepal, Bihar, and Uttar Pradesh. Made with rice flour, jaggery, and poppy seeds, it is fried until golden and crisp outside and chewy inside.
A festive delicacy, Malai Paan (or Malai Gillori) from Lucknow is an Awadhi-style dessert with layers of malai wrapped around a sweet filling of sugar, khoya, and chopped nuts.
