Sweet Tooth?

 

When you are first encounter Indian desserts it’s not uncommon to be surprised,  how to enjoy them, or can one enjoy them?

Indian sweets are very different to traditional Western desserts, and not having a point of reference can make it hard to decipher what to order. Just one bite and those fragrant and exotic Indian desserts suddenly become something you crave. South Asian sweets are called by numerous names, one common name being Mithai.

While it’s easy to be perplexed about that plate of diamond-shaped barfi or a bowl of syrupy gulab jamun, an adventurous foodie quickly discovers the addictive quality of Indian sweets.

Traditionally, most Indian sweets aren’t baked, instead, they are cooked on the stovetop or over an open fire. What are they made of? Well, it depends on the region, but the usual suspects are milk, chickpea flour, semolina, coconut and rice. On their own, these ingredients may not sound too appetising but a knowledgeable cook can easily transform them into delectable sweets flavoured with cardamom, saffron and rose water.
