Makar Sankranti

                                                                               

Nepal is observing a public holiday today on the auspicious occasion of Makar Sankranti, also known as Maghi. It is a festival which is celebrated to mark the shift of the Sun into the zodiac constellation of Capricorn (called Makar in Nepali). It falls on the very first day of the Nepali month Magh.

It is believed that with the arrival of this fiesta, the short and chilling days of winter gradually turn into longer and warmer days, eventually giving an invitation to spring. It is also reputed as the festival of harvest in Nepal. The Sun is worshipped in the form of God on this day by the Hindu devotees. They take a bath on the sacred rivers which are nearby the places that they live in. The delicacies that are eaten are ghee, Chaakku, Teel ko laddu, tilauri and yam. So do not miss them out if you are on a holiday in Nepal on 15^th of January.

Kheer-Nepali pudding

                                                                              

Rice is the staple food in Nepal. Whether it’s for the breakfast or for dinner, Nepalese people mostly opt for ‘daal, bhaat and tarkaari’ (rice along with lentils and curry). But everybody gets bored if they are having the same meal routinely, don’t they? Perhaps, this is the reason why folks here have ‘devised’ various cuisines as alterations and add-ons to rice. Kheer is one such dish which holds special importance in this beautiful landlocked country.

Although the origins of this cookery are unclear, Kheer has however occupied a large share of Nepali culture. It is relished in special occasions like religious functions, weddings, birthdays and many others. Kheer is prepared by gently boiling rice along with milk and some sugar. You can then add some dry fruits like cashew nuts, raisin, cloves and others as per your taste.
