Modak masterclass
A must-have sweet during one of Maharashtra’s most important festivals, no Ganesh Chaturthi is complete without an offering of 21 modaks to Lord Ganesha. There is something irresistible about Ukadiche Modaks, the soft, pretty pleated rice flour wraps with a filling of jaggery and coconut. In this online workshop by Anita Katdare, you will get to learn how to make modaks from scratch. From preparing the dough, making the coconut-based filling, to the beautiful pleats, you will learn it all. .
