Navratri Recipes – In this post, you will find a compiled list of Navratri fasting or vrat recipes that are made during the Navratri Festival. Or you can browse the complete collection of Vrat Recipes here. Sharad Navratri begins on 07 October 2021 and ends on 15 October 2021.
Navratri Festival
Navratri is one of the most celebrated festival in my home. As a devi-bhakt, I spend these 9 days in the worship of the Goddess. Not only these 9 days, but for me not a single day goes without remembering the Mother Goddess.
Navratri festival is celebrated all over India. The method and ways of celebrating is different and unique in each part of India.
In North and Western India, 9 days fasting or vrat is kept during the Navratri festival. In Bengal and other parts of Eastern India, Durga Puja is celebrated with much fanfare.
Navratri is also celebrated in South India. Fasting is not strictly observed here but food is made without the addition of onion and garlic. People do worship the deities and make sundals or sweet recipes to offer as prasadam. Golu which is a lovely display of deities idols, dolls and animal figures is set up in many homes during the festival.
Navratri Fasting
In India, fasting rules varies from community to community. It is always better to check with your family members before deciding the menu. If you plan to keep fast during Navratri then do check this list of Navratri Fasting Food and Rules.
Below you will find both North Indian and South Indian recipes listed. Also mentioned towards is a list of flours and cereals consumed during the fasting period.
Most of the fasting recipes are very quick and easy to make. As many spices and herbs are not allowed during fasting days. Moreover you don’t have to chop onions, garlic etc.
Kindly skip or alter the ingredients according to your family traditions. I have also listed a few recipes which are made without onion and garlic but does include cereal flours.
In these instances, substitute the corn flour or besan (gram flour) with fasting flours like water chestnut flour (singhare ka atta), buckwheat flour (kuttu ka atta) or arrow root flour or potato starch. Do remember to use sendha namak or rock salt in recipes where I have not added them.
Fasting food is not only quicker to prepare but it is also easiest to digest. A good time to purify body-mind and get connected to your inner nature and to the Mother Goddess.
In North India only certain ingredients comprising of flours and grains are consumed during the 9 days of fasting.
- Singhare ka atta (water chestnut flour)
- Kuttu ka atta (buckwheat flour)
- Rajgira ka atta (amaranth flour) and rajgira (amaranth)
- Sama ke chawal ka atta (barnyard millet flour) and vrat ke chawal (barnyard millet)
- Arrowroot flour
- Sabudana or sago
- Peanuts
- Nuts & Dry fruits
- Rock salt (sendha namak)
- Spices and herbs varies from community to community. Generally, green chilles, black pepper powder, and ginger are used. You can check my compiled list of Navratri Fasting Food or Ingredients.

Which cooking oil can be used while cooking during navratras
i use peanut oil or ghee during navratri fast. we also make sure that it is fresh and not used earlier.
Dear dassana,
with navratri coming up I wanted to know how peanuts are included in the allowed list when all other legumes are not. Have you mistakenly classified them as nuts or is there something I`m not understanding. Hope you can clarify cos would love to eat them but have avoided so far. Thanks
we do have peanuts during navratri. that’s why i have mentioned them. in the sabudana khichdi and sabudana vada we make during fasting, we add peanuts.

Regds Aditi
aditi, in the navratri recipes, i have not included the recipes from all the indian states that you have mentioned. the reason being that only some flours and fruits/veggies are permitted during navratri. but i will add all the no onion no garlic recipes from these states in this list or try to create another post for these recipes. i have a few bengali and bihari/jharkand recipes posted. but yes i have not been able to add recipes from orissa, assam, manipur & arunachal pradesh. but i am going to add the recipes from these states gradually.
also thanks for the bengali recipes you have suggested. i have taken a note of them. will try to cover the vegetarian ones. in fact i had made a note of some bengali recipes before navratri that i had planned to prepare during durga pooja. just two days back i added aloo posto recipe and today i will post sweet potato jamuns.
can we eat gram during navratri??
can we have lemon juice in navratri??
you can have lemon juice. what do you mean by “gram”?
CAN WE DRINK THE COLD DRINK DURING NAVRATRI FAST ????
by cold drink, if you mean soft drinks like coke or pepsi etc, then these drinks are not had while fasting.
No gram… gram means chana I guess ..
