Instructions: To begin making Rice Flour Manda Pitha Recipe, boil water and milk together with cardamom powder and salt.Add rice flour and corn flour to it – part by part, while continuously stirring it to avoid lumps.Keep stirring it in low heat until all water is absorbed and it forms into a ball.Turn off the gas and cover the dough.In the meantime prepare the sweet filling by heating up 2 tablespoon ghee in a Pan.Add the coconut, paneer, and sugar and mix it well.Cook this in low heat for 7 to 8 minutes.Now prepare the dough by applying a little oil on your palms and kneading the warm dough into a soft workable texture. Make sure that the dough is not very hot.Now take a tennis ball sized dough, make a dent in the center and put 1 tablespoon of filling in it and close the opening. Smooth it all over to make it look like a ball. Make sure that there are no gaps.You will get around 8 to 10 balls. Now we should steam the Manda Pitha. Heat water in a Steamer and steam the Rice Manda Pitha or dough balls for 10 minutes.Serve Manda Pitha along with Poori and Aloo Methi Masala Recipe or Vatana Usal Recipe for festive breakfast.
