Holi is the Hindu festival of color, an annual celebration in Nepal and India that commemorates the coming of spring. While the grasses start to ease their way back to green, residents of these countries spend a day decking themselves out with colored powder, dancing under stained sprinklers, and generally rejoicing in the shades of a new season. This year, the Holi festival will be held on Friday, March 18th, so we’ve rounded up 18 colorful recipes that dramatically display the coming of spring. Not all of them are South Asian, but all are wildly colorful and beautiful, a perfect homage to Holi.
