How to make:
For this pitha the rice flour got to be very little coarsely grinned Back in our country there square measure numerous place wherever we are able to grind the rice grain for this type of pitha. however in USA I even have to form my very own coarsely grinned rice flour. thus here is that the procedure to form your rice flour for this pitha. Take three cups of Bashmati rice, wash them well and place in an exceedingly filter to empty the water utterly currently place some towel on an oversized receptacle and unfold the washed rice on that. detain a heat place to dry the rice.Occasionally unfold them. once the rice dried up utterly grind them in your grinder. (Remember grind them little coarsely, however this rice flour can niether be too coarse nor too fine)
Now it's time to form the delicious pitha. Take two cups of rice flour in an exceedingly bowl, add the salt and sugar, and blend them. currently slowly add the milk within the dry combine and begin to combine them. This mixture can neither be sort of a dough nor sort of a batter, it'll simply be wet. after you take some mixture in your palm and press them, it'll kind a ball initially and so break down.
Now cowl the bowl and set it aside for around 6-7 hours. (In our country this pitha is specially created within the morning in Winter season. everybody likes build|to form|to create} the mixture in the dead of night and make their pitha early within the morning. thus if you would like, you'll conjointly prepare your pitha mixture in the dead of night and build delicious pitha early within the morning)
Now pour water up to the half the pan and place the pan on the burner to boil the water. within the time unit grate the coconut and jeggary and put aside. (here I used the special vapa pitha creating pan. If you are doing not have that don't be upset..:) simply follow the alternate manner describe within the below)
Now take a filter, place it on prime of a bowl and place some rice flour mixture (which you ready earlier) and sieve it trough the filter with the assistance of your hand.
Take the tiny bowl unfold some flour mixture on that to hide rock bottom, place some chopped coconut and chopped Mick Jagger, and so once more place some rice flour combine on prime of them and gently press the highest to form it plain. currently cowl the highest of the bowl with the piece of fabric and thoroughly flip the bowl with the assistance of the material on the the opening of the pan wherever vapor began to kick off. Then fastidiously confiscate the bowl and canopy the pan with the lid. (The piece of fabric can hold the bowl formed pitha on prime of the coated saucepan) watch for around 4-5 minutes to cook the pitha within the steam. Then fastidiously take it out from the pan with the assistance of huge|an enormous|a giant} spatula or big spoon.
