Matcha Phirni

Recipe For Holi: Creamy Green Tea Dessert

Matcha Phirni is a vibrant twist on the traditional Indian rice pudding, infused with the delicate, earthy aroma of green tea. Traditionally prepared during festive seasons, like Holi, phirni is celebrated for its creamy texture and fragrant cardamom flavour. The addition of matcha not only gives it a fresh, green hue but also adds antioxidants, making this dessert a healthier indulgence. Served chilled, it’s a perfect treat to balance the colours and energy of the festival. Topped with crunchy nuts and a hint of rose or saffron, each bite is smooth, aromatic, and festive-ready.
