Raja Special Poda Pitha Recipe ✨

• Soak rice for 6–7 hours and grind into a smooth batter.
• Add 2 tbsp milk powder.
• Grate half a coconut and cut the other half into small pieces.
• Fry some cashews in ghee.

Melt jaggery with a little water. Add bay leaves, ginger, cardamom, fennel seeds, black pepper, and a pinch of salt.

Add coconut and cashews, then cook until thick. Mix it into the rice batter.

Pour into a ghee-greased, banana leaf-lined pan and cook on low flame for 1 hour 20 minutes. Flip and cook for another 15 minutes.

Let it rest for 4–5 hours before cutting.

Happy Raja Festival! 🌺🙏
