Qubani ka meetha

(क़ुबानी का मीठा, خوبانی کا میٹھا)

Qubani ka meetha is a traditional dessert originating from Hyderabad. The dessert is usually made with a combination of dried apricots soaked in water, sugar, lime juice, blanched almonds, and malai cream. The soaked apricots are sliced and boiled in water and sugar until the mixture becomes syrupy and thick.


Lime juice is added to the mixture, and the dessert is then garnished with slivered almonds and malai cream. Qubani ka meetha can be served cold or warm, and it’s recommended to serve another dollop of malai cream on the side. Alternatively, custard or ice cream can be served instead of malai.


This dessert is a staple at weddings and festive occasions in Hyderabad.
