Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Heat the milk for 3 minutes and add a pinch of saffron strands to it. Mix till the milk turn yellow because of saffron infusing its color. Keep it aside.

* Step 2

In a thick bottom pan, add the grated mawa and sugar to the pan.

* Step 3

Using a spatula, stir continuously until the mixture starts melting. This takes about 2-3 mins. It will get aromatic as the mawa melts and roasts.

* Step 4

At this point add the milk and saffron mixture and mix until well combined.

* Step 5

Keep stirring for another 5 mins or until the mixture thickens and leaves the pan, and comes together like a dough not sticking to the pan. It will also ooze some fat which shines on it. Now the mixture is ready. Let it cool.

* Step 6

While the mixture cools, grease the modak molds with ghee.

* Step 7

Divide the mixture into portions roughly.

* Step 8

Take one portion and roll it between your palms with gentle pressure to smoothen it out. It should turn smooth and shiny. Add this smooth ball to the mold.

* Step 9

Close the mold, and remove excess dough from the bottom and sides. Press the bottom open end of the mold to ensure the filling is well packed.

* Step 10

Carefully remove the modak out of the mold and place them on a clean plate. Repeat until done all the modaks are prepared. Allow them to sit for 10 mins. Delicious Modaks are ready to offer.
