This Eid is largely focused on sweet preparations and so it is called – Meethi Eid. After a whole month of Iftar feasting which is full of rich meaty delicacies, the last day starts with sweet. It is said that the evening meal of the holy month is usually meat dominated and as the Ramzan is closed, next day is celebrated as Eid. The day starts with something sweet after a month-long fasting and praying.
It is not just for you, sweets and other desserts are distributed among family and friends. Besides distributing them among friends and family, it is also said that sharing sweets with needy increases happiness and good luck. On the other hand, Bakra Eid symbolises the spirit of sacrifice and meat is a major food.
Some of the main delicacies for the festival are Qeemami Sevai and Sheer Korma. While Qeemami Sevai is prepared with sevai and sugar syrup, Sheer Korma includes boiled milk, sevai and dry fruits. without these two, your festival is incomplete.
This year, Meethi Eid or Eid Ul Fitr is expected to be celebrated on Monday, 26th June.
