Thanks for this recipe Aarthi…. I made it for Vinaya Chavithi…. They turned out really well.

Hi Aarthi!
I prepared this modak for this vinayagar chathurthi. It came out very well! All of us like it very much! Thank you!
Hi dear
I am trying this now. It’s in process. Meanwhile I had a doubt. Some authors ask us to pressure cook the rice and dhal before adding to jaggery. What diff does it make? I am hoping mine turns out well. Waiting to open the cooker to see the yummy modhakams.
But I felt this method is good enough, as this is how we make arisi upma and arisi kozhakattai. (Omit jaggery n coconut though). We don’t pressure cook.
You dont have to pressure cook. If you are using the dal raw and whole you need.
