FRIED MODAK

Fried modak can be prepared using wheat flour or maida flour. In this recipe, I have used wheat flour.


INGREDIENTS


WHEAT FLOUR-  1 CUP

JAGGERY-  3/4 CUP

COCONUT GRATINGS-  1 CUP

SALT A PINCH

CARDAMOM POWDER- 1/2 TSP

GHEE-  2 TSP

OIL FOR FRYING



FOR THE OUTER LAYER

Mix wheat flour,ghee,salt,water and knead to stiff dough.Allow it to rest for twenty minutes.

Roll the dough to big chapati. Using a sharp round lid press it firmly on the rolled chapati.

Now cut out the small chapatis and keep it aside.


FOR THE FILLING.

Dissolve jaggery in water and pass it through a sieve to remove impurities.

Heat the jaggery syrup. When it starts to boil add coconut gratings and simmer in mild heat till syrup blends well with the gratings and switch off. Add cardamom powder and mix well.


 Now take the jaggery mixture and roll into equal size balls. Now place the sweet filling inside the small chapatis and gently close the edges to form modak shape.

Heat oil in a pan and fry the modaks on both the sides till it turns crisp.
