Hindus food on Deepawali is sweets, on Holi Guzia, On Raksha Bandhan Ghevar, Basdant Panchami Halwa. Muslims food on Id Ul Zuha meat or Biryani, Id Ul Fitar Sweet samai, christians cake on Christmas. Budhists are similar to Hindu.
@ Ram prosad acharyya

You can even browse in the google you will get more information
Yes, I agree with Sarala that one can get these answers by searching in Google and it is good for some difficult answers too.
Gujia,Halwa,rasgulle and malpua etc are few sweets hindu prepare in their festivals. Mutton and seviyan etc are cooked by Muslim and cake is prepared by Christian on every occasion.No idea what is prepared by Buddhists.

Budhists in India are essentially Hindus and they follow the same food habits. Other Budhists are in Ladakh, Tibet, China and some other asian countries. They may be following traditions of original inhabitants at those places in all matters including food.

Now the festivals will begin after Ashada..
The first one is Nagara Panchami and for this festival here at Mangalore most of us make a sweet called manjal iretha adye , which is steamed rice flour in turmeric leaves with coconut and jaggery filling and raw cashew nut payasa which is very tasty
For Krishna Ashtami we normally make rice ladoos , payasa and Holige
Ganesha Chaturthi - Payasa,holige and rava ladoo
Deepavali - Coconut Burfi, Holige and Payasa

Payasa or kheer and Holige seem to be common to all festivals in the south, at least here in Mangalore and Karnataka..
ugadi - ugadi chatnee
Ganesh chaturthi - undarallu
atla thaddi - dosa
srirama navami - panakam
Nagula chaviti- eggs and milk.
hindus celebrate festival with sweet.they eat ladoo,kalakand,rasgulla and many such ype of sweets.christian specially made differentr types of cakes.muslims favourite food is biriyani,sewai which they made in their festival.and buddhist are mainly vegetarian.
In every festival of hindus the sweet takes major part. As they had many sweets. muslims will celebrate with biryani.

Thanks for reply.


But it's a nice question for discussion :P :P :P :P :P

Onam and Vishu are related to Kerala Sadya....vegetarian meal served in plantain leaf, with 10-15 or more curries, rice and payasams. Vishu katta is made on Vishu, a rice food.

On Durgashtami (Dessara celebration), we place books and weapons for pooja and make rice payasam on Mahanavami when they are taken back.

Syrian Christians make Indiyappam for Easter. Also Kuttiyappam and stoo. I have seen my neighbours here, making a sweet similar to unniyappam in maida for their annual festival celebrations.

Muslims always make Biryani items and sweets for their celebrations after a long day fasting.
Am pulling this thread up back to discussion, as it's a lovely thread
