This Karwa Chauth, Man Chaaha Khaana, Quaker Se Banana: Fuelling Sargi with the Power of 5!

Karwa Chauth is just around the corner, and it marks for another auspicious and beautiful festival for many women across the country. On this day, married women observe a fast for the long and healthy lives of their husbands. The ritual traditionally starts with the consumption of ‘Sargi’ – a pre-dawn meal featuring a variety of fruits, sweet and savory dishes with a side of dry fruits and is traditionally consumed before sunrise, on the day of Karwa Chauth, which helps people prepare for the day-long fast.

To support those observing the fast, Quaker has curated special Sargi recipes featuring Quaker Oats Multigrain. Combining the #PowerOf5 – oats, wheat, ragi, barley, and flaxseeds – this blend, made from wholegrain oats, high in fiber to aid gut health and a good source of protein, offers the energy equivalent to 2 rotis, all while incorporating the familiar flavors of ragi and wheat.
