Ram Navami is the birthday celebration of Lord Ram. This celebration takes place on the ninth and last day of Chaitra Navratri. People celebrate the birth of Lord Ram by fasting throughout the day, singing hymns and then feasting after sunset.

Fasting and feasting are both essential part of this festival. The one thing which can be consumed in both are the sweets. Sweets made in ghee can be easily consumed by the people who are on a fast during this auspicious occasion of Ram Navami. Boldsky has listed out ten such sweet recipes which you can eat during your fast and also if you are not fasting.

SIGNIFICANCE OF RAM NAVAMI

Take a look at these top 10 amazing sweet recipes which you can try on Ram Navami. Do give a try.

Coconut Laddoo With Condensed Milk

This is not the traditional coconut ladoo that is prepared with jaggery or sugar. This Navratri vrat sweet dish is prepared with grated coconut and condensed milk. The thick creamy milk is mixed with grated coconut and then stirred with sugar. It is an awesome treat for the sweet tooth of fasters.

Mango Phirni

Talking of sweets, we can only think of ladoos, barfis and other common Indian sweets. But here we have a delightful and fresh sweet recipe which will be a welcome change for the taste-buds. Phirni is an Indian rice pudding made by cooking ground rice with milk. It's usually flavored with saffron, but this Mango variation is simply divine.

Kaju Barfi

The only trick to make perfect barfis is to get the consistency of sugar syrup right. If the syrup is too thick, your barfi will turn out hard and if the syrup is too thin, it will not bind. The sugar syrup should be of one string consistency.

Vrat Ka Halwa

There are ingredients such as the buckwheat flour, rock salt, water chestnut flour etc. which can be eaten during the period of fasting. So, here we have a special sweet fasting recipe for you prepared with a combination of the buckwheat flour and water chestnut flour. You can eat this vrat ka halwa irrespective of whether you are fasting or not.

Makhana Kheer

Makhana (lotus seeds) kheer is one of the most commonly prepared vrat Indian sweet dish. Makhana is healthy as it is rich in proteins and calcium. Although makhana has no flavour of its own, the aromatic spices and nuts in kheer makes it a delicious treat.

Gulabi Firni

Firni is actually a part of the Mughlai cuisine. Traditionally, firni is a plain, creamy dessert served with almonds and pistachios in earthenware pots. But we have added a little twist by adding rose syrup to further enhance the taste of this exotic Indian dessert recipe.

Mango Rasgulla

Also known as Kamala Bhog, mango rasgullas can bring a new flavour on the dessert plate. During off season, many sweet shops add mango essence and flavour to prepare mango rasgullas. But, here is the recipe that uses mango pulp to prepare the rasgulla since the mangoes are in season.

Dates Halwa

To prepare this lip-smacking delight make sure that you use soft, de-seeded dates. If the dates you have are hard, then soak them in warm milk for 5-6 hours and then go on with the recipe. Dates halwa is not only delicious but also healthy at the same time since dates are a rich source of iron, vitamins and minerals.

Sabudana Kheer

Sabudana Kheer is also an interesting Indian dessert recipe. If you have a sweet tooth that gives you craving for that elusive 'something sweet' when you are on a your ritual Navratri fast then this will be your saving grace. This Navrati fast recipe can also be fed to kids and old people because it is relatively easy to digest. Other than that it is also an oil free recipe good for your health even when you are not fasting.

Atte Ka Halwa

There are many halwa recipes that can be made using different ingredients like wheat flour, suji (semolina), almonds or moong dal. Try this halwa recipe made out of wheat flour.
