New Delhi: Karwa Chauth is one of India's most cherished festivals for fasting, where women keep fast for the whole day without eating or drinking anything for the long life of their husband. Majorly celebrated by the Hindu community, the festival has various rituals such as fasting, eating only for sargi, praying with katha and getting dressed up to look beautiful for their husbands.

No Karwa Chauth is complete without indulging in a sweet treat during the Sargi. A sweet that is traditionally prepared each year for Karwa Chauth is Fenia, which carries the warmth of traditions and adds festive charm in each bite.

Here is your easiest yet most delicious recipe guide to prepare it at home and enjoy the traditional flavours while adding festive fun.
