Lord Ganesha is cute and adorable and best part I love about him is that he is a big foodie. So Ganesh Utsav is a time for feasting as all his favorite dishes are cooked and offered to the deity before consuming them as prasad. The offerings of Lord Ganesha are incomplete without modak. Today we have a dry fruit modak recipe that’s made from just 3 ingredients – dates, almonds and desiccated coconut – super tasty and super healthy! The best part – no cooking required!
No Cook Dry Fruit Modak Recipe for Kids
Ingredients:
- 1 cup finely chopped seedless dates.
- ¼ cup chopped almonds
- 1/8 cup desiccated coconut
Method:
1. In a mixing bowl combine all the ingredients. Mix well.
2. Pinch out a small portion of the mix and make a round shape using your hands.
3. Place the ball in a modak mold and close it. Apply a little pressure and press the mix well from hole given at the bottom of the mold.
4. When you open the mould, you’ll have a ready made modak.
