#Modak A delicious fusion of traditional modak and the irresistible flavours of meetha paan! Soft, rich and melt-in-the-mouth mawa is filled with a delightful mixture of gulkand, fresh paan, coconut, tutti frutti, fennel and nuts. A beautiful festive treat with the perfect balance of creamy, nutty, floral and refreshing paan flavours—perfect for Ganesh Chaturthi, gifting and festive orders.
Prepare paan filling: Finely chop the paan leaves. Mix them with gulkand, coconut, tutti frutti, fennel seeds and chopped nuts. Keep aside.
Cook the mawa: Heat ghee in a non-stick pan. Add mawa and cook on low flame for 3–4 minutes, stirring continuously.
Add milk powder and fresh cream. Mix well and cook until the mixture comes together and starts leaving the sides of the pan.
Switch off the flame and let it cool slightly.
Add powdered sugar, cardamom powder, rose essence and optional green colour. Mix thoroughly.
Take about 1½ tbsp mawa mixture, flatten it in your palm and place ½ tsp paan filling in the centre.
Bring the edges together and roll gently to seal.
Grease a modak mould lightly with ghee. Fill it with the mixture and press firmly.
Demould carefully and garnish with chopped pistachios, rose petals or a tiny piece of paan leaf.
