Learn how to make Karwa chouth diya or lamp? Please excuse the picture quality, it’s a cloudy and rainy day and that is clearly visible in my pictures. I have tried my best to get the clear shots and give you an idea on how to prepare Karwa chouth diyas. Procedure is pretty simple. Be creative and innovation as much as you can. Knead a tight dough. Take a katori or mould of your choice and grease it well with OIL. Please do not grease with ghee or butter as it will become firm when frozen and diya will stick to it.
