This year in 2019, Karwa Chauth is on the 17th of October.
This is one of the most awaited fasts of the year. The married ladies do the fast, whole day long, without any food or water. After the moonrise, many of us like to go out to restaurants to open the fast. Or in the current era of so many food delivery options, not many like to cook on Karwa Chauth.
But I love to cook the Karwa Chauth dinner because I like to eat homemade food at the end of fast. Also, I don’t feel like eating the items on the restaurant’s menu. I want something like poori, aloo, halwa, etc. Further cooking keeps me busy during the day. So, for all those, who for any of these or any other reasons, like to cook the Karwa Chauth Dinner, here is a menu you can indulge in this Karwa Chauth.
It is not a very elaborate menu. Bread, gravy, raita, and dessert; easy and quick to make and delish to relish! All the items in the given menu have been prepared without any onion and garlic.
