About Meetha Oliya
Meetha Oliya is a traditional Rajasthani dish prepared with boiled rice, yogurt, milk, sugar, cardamom, saffron, and nuts. It is quite popular in Marwari homes and is specially prepared during the festival of Shitla Ashtami (Basoda) along with the savory version Namkeen Oliya. You can also serve it as a light meal or as a dessert during summer. This dish is a great way to use the leftover rice from the previous day. If you make it with freshly cooked rice, cool it down completely before mixing it with yogurt; otherwise, the yogurt might curdle. Adjust the sugar according to your taste. You can replace white sugar with brown sugar or powdered jaggery. I have added cashew nuts, almonds, and pistachios for a lovely crunch, but you can add any nuts you like.
