As soon as the nip in the air is felt, our minds and hearts go straight to the assortment of delicacies that winters bring with them. From the OG food combos like parathas and makkhan to the regional delicacies like Gajak and Til Pitha, the number of delicacies to make a foodie's heart dance is endless. Hailing from Eastern India and having spent a year in Delhi, I can fairly say that “Shardiyon ka mazaa toh maine le liya hai”. From relishing the quintessential Manda Pitha on winter Thursdays since childhood to savouring a plate of delicious Gajar Ka Halwa on winter evenings in Delhi, I have had it all. To make your winters equally joyous and indulgent, Slurrp brings before you five food and beverage combos that you can relish.
1. Chai And Parle G
The OG food combo that takes every Indian to one’s childhood days, Chai and Parle-G are an unbeatable duo. I mean, why only childhood? Chai and Parle-G is still my mandatory winter evening ritual for most days and I believe the same is for most of you too.
2. Doodh And Jalebi
Piping hot, sinful and deliciously crispy Jalebis are undoubtedly the favourite desserts of most Indians. How about pairing them with some cold milk to relish on winter evenings? Indulgent, right?
3. Noon Chai And Lavassa Roti
If you’ve ever been to the lanes of Old Delhi on winter mornings, you’ll find many people sipping on a cup of pink-hued beverage along with a thick, soft and buttery flatbread. This food combo hails from Kashmir and is a deadly combo to indulge in on winter mornings. The buttery flatbread deliciously complements the slightly savoury cup of chai and is perfect to set the winter mood right.
4. Gud Chai And Paratha
Who can miss out on Makkhan Waale Parathe on a chilly winter morning? And gud chai on the side amps them up to a different level altogether. This duo is irresistibly delicious and perfect to prep you up for the day.
Excited already? What’s stopping you from trying these easy and delicious combos this winter?
