If you conduct a survey among Indians and ask about their favourite Indian sweet dish, then the dessert that will top the list will certainly be the most popular and loved ‘Gulab Jamun’. This delicious dessert is not just loved in India but also overseas, especially in countries like Nepal, Myanmar, Pakistan, Bangladesh and even Mauritius. This sweet dish is truly delicious and adds soul to any party. But do you know this most loved dessert of yours is not even from India?

You will be shocked to know that your favourite sweet dish hails from Persia. This delicacy is very much similar to an Arabic dessert named Luqmat-Al-Qadi, which was introduced to India with the invasion of Mughal emperors.
