The festival season is just around the corner. In the Indian epic The Ramayana, Dussehra commemorates Lord Rama's victory over Ravana. The tenth day of Durga Puja is also known as Vijayadashami, and it commemorates Goddess Durga's victory over the unbeatable demon Mahisasura. Many Hindus across the country cook delectable meals and gather together with family and friends to celebrate the completion of a nine-day fast.
Aside from that, people also burn Ravana idols to commemorate good triumphing over evil.
If you are organizing a Dussehra get-together at home this year, we have compiled a list of scrumptious foods that you should try making at home.
