Hi R / any other friends,
Any idea about the significance of Navrathri ? All I know is victory of good over evil, but what is exact story behind the 9 day celebrations ?
When exactly is the 1st.day of Navarathri this year, Oct. 3 or Oct. 4 ?
Thanks in advance,
Yamuna.

Hello R,
Tried Instand Burfi. As you said i can't make it in the microwave. It overflowed. So after 4 mins i cooked in the sotve top. The outcome was like a halwa but not burfi. Tastes very good. Can u tell me how to make burfi rather than halwa?
