Equipment

- Mixing Bowl
- Heavy Bottomed Pan
Ingredients
- 1 cup Raw Rice 1 Cup - 250ml
- ¼ cup Milk
- 2 teaspoon Sesame oil
- ¼ teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Soaking Process
- Wash rice twice and soak in water for atleast an hour.
- After 1 hour, drain the water and take it to mixer jar.
Grinding Process
- Grind the rice to a smooth paste by adding water. Even if the batter is thin, we don’t need to worry as we are going to cook the batter till it becomes like a dough like consistency. So no need to panic. If the batter is thin, then it will take more time to become thick like a dough while we cook.
Cooking Batter
- Take batter in a heavy bottomed pan. Add milk, sesame oil and salt. Stir well. Now switch on the flame.
- Keep stirring the batter in medium flame. The batter will start becoming thick and eventually all the moisture will be absorbed and the batter will become like a dough. Switch off the flame and allow the dough to cool off and then add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil and knead it well for couple of minutes and cover the dough with a damp cloth and set it aside.
- When the filling is ready, remove the damp cloth from the dough. Grease your hands with oil and take small quantity of dough roll into a ball. Press in the middle and start shaping it like a cup.
Dough Ready!
- The dough cup is now ready! We can place the filling and close it like a modak.
