Usually served during winters, seasoned with chat masala, lemon, tamarind chutney. This is also a common ingredient to consume during fasting days (Navratri, Ekadshi, Janamashtmi).

Note

1. Adding chutneys is purely choice. You can eliminate as required.
2. After boiling wait till shakarkand is at room temperature. Otherwise, shakarkand loosen and become soft.
