Gavhle Kheer (??????????? ???)

Kheer is a very common sweet in Maharashtrian homes. Different types of Kheer are made on both auspicious as well as non-auspicious occasions.

Gavhale (also known as Valvat) means hand made pasta. Kheer from Gavhale (??????????? ???) is made during auspicious and festive occasions. During weddings / thread ceremony five types of kheers are made from five different pastas known as Gavhale (??????), Maaltya (???????), Fanole (?????) , Mohor (?????) and Nakhole (?????).  This Kheer is also offered to goddess Gauri as Naivedya. 

This delicacy has become rare now a days as process of making Gavhale is very time consuming.
