Lohri festival is known for its celebration with Til-Chowli instead of traditional sweets. Til-chowli is typically made at home and is not available for sale in shops. Without making Til-chowli, the celebrations of Lohri are considered incomplete. So Guys, here we present a recipe for making Til Chowli. You must try it out to get the real taste of Himachal…

Sesame seed (Til) 1 Cup
Rice (Soaked for 2 hours) 1 Cup
Ground nut seeds (roasted and without salt) ¼ Cup
Desi Ghee 3-4 tsp
Dry fruits (optional)
