Today we all are celebrating Krishna Janmashtami and busy making sweet and savoury dishes to offer as prashad. During fasting we will consume only fruit and vegetables and flour made with them as Grains and pulses are not allowed if you are fasting.
I have posted many sweet and savory recipes to use during fasting,My favorite recipe to make for fasting are- Sama and potato cutlets, Aloo ka halwa, Kuttu ka dahivada , Sabudana khichdi and Rajgiri and aloo thepla
In south India this milk halwa is popular as Palkova,This is a quick and instant type of dessert recipe.you need just few ingredients to make this milk halwa,you can either use lemon juice or curd to curdle the milk This can be make on stove top or can also make in Microwave oven,results of both are good.
