| '''Fenia''' ([[Punjabi language|Punjabi]]: ਫ਼ੈਨੀਆਂ) is a form of [[vermicelli]] from the [[Indian subcontinent]], notably [[North India]] . Although similar to the vermicelli used in ''[[Vermicelli#History in Asia|seviyan]]'' and ''[[falooda]]'' (both desserts from the region), ''fenia'' are much thinner. They have a ritualistic importance for the ''[[Karva Chauth]]'' festival in [[Punjab, India|Punjab]] where, along with [[halva]] and dry fruits, they are part of the ''sargi'' ensemble consumed just before the fast associated with the festival begins.<ref name="ref29bovaf">{{Citation | title=People of India |author1=Kumar Suresh Singh |author2=B.
