Notes

• Choose the rice flour wisely, we get Modak Rice Flours in the market, Rice flour used to make Modaks are made with Basmati Rice. So it gives a nice aroma to the flour
• Make sure the ratio of the water used to melt the jaggery is taken as shown in the video.
• The filling should have the right consistency to make perfect Modaks
• Knead a soft dough so make soft modaks
