dry fruits modak recipe

Dry fruits modak recipe  – A simple rich modak made with dry fruits and nuts base that you can try for ganesh chaturthi.

I have given 2 versions one is with dry fruits mixture stuffed inside which needs steaming and other with dry fruit and nuts mixture pressed into mould and served as such.Both versions tastes good, so go ahead making this dry fruits modak this year and enjoy!

I have given a simple recipe using just dry fruits and nuts alone, but you can make a richer version by adding khoya/mawa too.I have used mould here but if you don’t have mould then you can check here for easy modak without mould check this post.Check out other Ganesh chaturthi recipes posted already.

Recipe Notes

  • If you prepare the dough before hand, make sure to keep covered with a wet cloth to avoid drying up.
  • You can use either homemade rice flour / storebought.I used store bought rice flour, brand name is Nirapara.
  • If you don’t have a mould make just balls or If you don’t have a mould make just balls or modak shapes.You can even make semi circle shape like here.
  • For a more richer version you can add dessicated coconut and khoya each 2 tbsp.
