Happy Dassera everyone!
The traditional festival sweet for Dassera is Shrikhand puri in Maharashtra! It is a holiday. The houses are adorned with marigold flowers, Gods and Goddesses worshipped and the celebration of good over evil, knowledge over ignorance begins! Dassera also signifies that Diwali is round the corner.
For the Dassera festive lunch, I could not wait to scoop shrikhand with those warm fluffy puris!
Sharing 3 of Indfused’s very own Shrikhand recipes that are quick and easy without compromising the taste, of course!

Happy Dussehra to you & your family!
Happy Dussehra! Hope you had a wonderful celebration!
I love Srikhand. It is healthy except for the sugar part. My pick? Kesar Pista or Fig. I’m leaning towards the latter though because it is different.
The fig one has no added sugar either. Those caramelized figs were amazing.
What is the traditional Dassera dessert in Jaipur?
Sandhya, we don’t have a culture of celebrating Dussera with specific sweet/dessert. Diwali? Yes, we do have many Mithai options. Is it a big thing in Maharashtra? Or there in Boston among the Indian community?
It is more in Maharashtra but Indian Americans here do celebrate Navratri, Dassera and Diwali in a big way!
Super 👍
Really
