Ingredients For Crispy Fried Modaks For Ganesh Chaturthi With A Sweet Coconut Filling Recipe

1 cup Rice Flour
1 cup Water
1 tsp Ghee
as required pinch of salt
1 cup Grated fresh coconut
as required ¾ cup grated jaggery
2 tbsp chopped almonds
2 tbsp chopped cashews
as required ½ tsp cardamom powder
1 tbsp poppy seeds
as required Oil
as required For deep frying

Directions : Crispy Fried Modaks For Ganesh Chaturthi With A Sweet Coconut Filling Recipe

STEP 1.In a pan, heat water with a little ghee and a pinch of salt. Once it begins to boil, lower the flame and then slowly add rice flour.
STEP 2.Mix it quickly until the flour soaks up the water and gets the shape of a soft dough. Cover and let it rest for a few minutes until it cools and is manageable to handle.
STEP 3.For the filling, cook some grated coconut and jaggery in a pan over a low flame until the jaggery melts and the mixture turns thick. Add some poppy seeds, chopped nuts and cardamom.
STEP 4.Transfer the prepared filling to a plate and let it cool down thoroughly. Avoid making it too wet, as a moist filling will make the modaks challenging to seal.
STEP 5.Knead the warm rice-flour dough until smooth and divide it into small portions. Roll each piece into a small disc, keeping the centre a bit thicker than the edges.
STEP 6.Place a spoonful of the coconut-jaggery filling in the middle. Collect the edges together carefully, pinch to seal and then shape into a traditional modak shape.
STEP 7.In a deep pan, heat oil over medium flame. Gently slide the filled modaks into the hot oil and fry them in batches until they turn evenly golden and crisp.
STEP 8.Remove the fried modaks onto a tissue paper. Let them cool down a bit and then serve as bhog or prasad.
