Happy Baisakhi/Bihu/Ugadi/Gudi Padwa/Vishu/Tamil Puththandu to all !! The festival is celebrated in many parts of our country and I am sharing two excellent dessert dishes for the upcoming festival. It is believed that phirni hailed from ancient Persia or Middle East and it’s the Mughals who both invented and introduced it to India.

Try these exotic varieties of phirnis and enjoy with family and friends.
