It’s that time of the year when we’re counting down the days to our favourite festival, Diwali. Even though we now live miles away from India, there’s something in the air that brings back the familiarity of the festive time back home. The expat in us channels their inner Amrish Puri from DDLJ and reminisces about biji ke haath ka khana and mithai!

So what do we do to deal with the homesickness and cravings for yummy Indian food? We cook and invite friends and family here to wrap our selves in that warm cozy feeling that one gets during this beautiful festival of lights.
But whether you are miles away from India or sitting in your pind, here are some menu ideas for your Diwali parties and festivities that will help you have a delicious Diwali!
