Many women celebrate Makar Sankranti with great enthusiasm by hosting Haldi-Kumkum get-togethers. At these gatherings, friends meet, talk, and have a good time together, making it a joyful and enjoyable experience.
When you host such events at home, just giving Haldi-Kumkum isn’t enough. It’s always nice to serve something delicious, as it makes the occasion more special.
However, it’s important to choose dishes that are easy to make, quick to prepare, and simple to serve. Here are some ideas for dishes you can make for the event:
The first dish is Bhel (puffed rice snack). Many people love spicy Bhel, and it’s quick and simple to make. It’s a fast and easy option.
The second dish is Masala Milk. A warm cup of Masala Milk is perfect for the chilly winter days. It's a comforting drink that’s also very easy to serve.
Idli with Chutney is another great choice. You can serve it to your guests at the Haldi-Kumkum gathering, but if you can’t serve the idlis hot, you can prepare them beforehand and serve with hot Sambar.
Fruit Salad or Fruit Custard are also favorite choices. In winter, fresh fruits are abundant, so you can easily prepare these nutritious and tasty dishes.
A Veg Sandwich made with plenty of vegetables is also loved by many. It doesn’t need to be served hot, so it is easy to prepare in advance and serve. These are some simple, quick, and delicious dishes that will not only make your Haldi-Kumkum event delightful but also add a festive touch to the occasion.
