Today is Janmasthami the lord krishna’s birthday, almost every part of India celebrate this auspicious day with lots of wishes and some mouthwatering dishes. For hindus lord Krishna is symbol of intelligence and we all believe that lord Krishna is a small kid and try to make him happy with our puja and prasad.
From the childhood days I saw my MAA to celebrate this day with lots of different Prasad. And I love to follow my mother's footsteps and after my marriage every year I tried to do something in KRISHNAASTAMI. Today I made few things and among them the most authentic dish is PAYES or RICE PUDDING. Bengali style payes is really a delicious dish which is made with lots of milk, rice and dry fruits. My husband loves payes a lot so I thought to share my MAA's payes recipe with all of you.
