Pahala Rasgulla
Heard about a fight between states for a sweet?? Well, it happens if the sweet is 'Rasgulla' . Who doesn't want to be called as the proud owner of this divine dessert! Honestly, I'm not bothered about the history or origin of a dish unless I get to eat it. But I definitely can't stand if some other state claims to be the originator of this version of Rasgulla! Yes, the Pahala Rasgulla is very native to Odisha as it comes from a village named Pahala situated in between Bhubaneswar and Cuttack. You'll see numerous shops on the highway selling these . These are different in colour and taste than the regular rasgullas which basically comes from the caramelized sugar. Have it warm or chilled , you'll be lost in its magical taste. It's not very easy to find this in every sweet shop as mostly we find the white rasgullas. And now being completely dependent on home-cooked food due to Covid, we are trying our hands on almost everything we crave for.
