Which food, when you eat it, instantly transports you to childhood?

To try to explain the above title in English is very simple, rice, lentils,with a sprinkle of white butter and lime.

But the emotions, sentiments, feelings stirred by Varan Bhat come nowhere closer to the English translation 🫣

Well there are types of rice like biryani, pulav, curd rice and many more , some may say more tasty than the simple Varan Bhat. But the Varan bhat is such a great comfort food! Very very simple yet healthy Maharashtrian delight.

Varan Bhat takes me back to an era where life was very simple and sharing home made wholesome meals with family was considered the highlight of the day 😊
