The Parsi community, a small but vibrant minority in India, descended from Persian Zoroastrians who migrated to India over a thousand years ago. Known for their distinct and flavourful cuisine, Parsis blend Persian, Iranian, and Gujarati influences into their culinary creations. Their cuisine features a variety of dishes, from sali boti to patrani machi, each bringing unique flavours to the table.
One of the most cherished desserts in Parsi cuisine is the Lagan Nu Custard, a dish often served at Parsi and Irani weddings. 'Lagan' means 'wedding' in Gujarati, and this luscious custard is a staple at celebratory events, including the Parsi New Year (Navroze). Unlike the classic caramel custard, Lagan Nu Custard boasts a unique taste and creamy texture that tantalizes the senses with every bite.
Here's a detailed recipe to help you create this rich, creamy dessert at home:
