This year Navratri is being observed from October 7 to October 15. The nine-day Hindu festival is celebrated with much fervour across the nation. Devotees partake in worship and celebrations by setting up pandals, hosting dances and much more.

Every region celebrates distinctly, from Bengal’s Durga Pujo to Gujarat’s garba dances. Many Hindus fast during this auspicious period by abstaining from a wide variety of grains, which means that only special meals are prepared. Even though celebrations might be muted due to restrictions in place, indulging in some flavourful falahari food can boost your festive spirit. If you are bored of having the same food during Navrati, here are three falahari recipes shared by Mumbai chefs for you to ace at home.
