Instant Modak

Ganpati Bappa Morya!

Ahead of Ganesh Chaturthi made some quick and instant Modaks.

So let's start with my recipe.

Ingredients for Modak:

• Milk Powder - 2 cups
• Milk - 1 cup
• Sugar, powdered - 3/4 cup
• Cardamom powder - 1 tsp
• Ghee - 3 tbsp
• Dry fruits - chopped, filling
• Coconut filling
• Semolina - 1 cup

Let's follow the steps:

• Take a non-stick pan, add 2 tbsp ghee. 
• Pour milk and then milk powder. Mix well.
• Keep the flame medium to low. Add sugar and keep stirring.
• Cook well till it starts to form a soft dough.
• Sprinkle cardamom powder and mix.
• Now put mixture in a plate and let it cool down.
• Add 1 tbsp ghee and fry semolina till light brown.
• Put semolina in a separate plate.
• Now take small amounts of the modak mixture, press with your fingers and put dry fruit/coconut filling in the centre and cover it.
• (For coconut  filling, heat pan add jaggery and then grated coconut. Cook till it binds well ).
• Make small balls and shape it like modaks. (Apply few drops of ghee in hands for easy making).
• If you have modak moulds, then shape it with the help of moulds.
• Wrap the modak in the fried semolina. It will give a good texture and taste.
• Repeat the same process.

Prasadam !!
