#diwalidelights....... Ras kadam is also known as kheer kadam and it is very famous sweet dish recipe of Bengali sweets. This is my grand mother in law's recipe. Every Diwali we follow this tradition. I have learned from my mother in law. Ras kadam can be made in advance and relished as and when required.
