Lohri is not just the festival of harvest but also of food and merriment. The festival is celebrated in January and marks the end of winter and the time to harvest rabi crops. A bonfire is lit, families whirl around it singing Punjabi folk songs and popping sesame seeds, popcorn, jaggery and rewaris. Like any other Indian festival, Lohri is incomplete without some appetizing, traditional foods. From makke ki roti and sarso ka saag to gajar ka halwa, the festival brings along many recipes that add sweetness to the celebrations.
