5 Delicious Upwas Recipes to Try
Here are five quick and flavourful recipes you can make using Shree Siddhivinayak Upwas Flours — perfect for fasting days that deserve a delicious twist!
- Thalipeeth: A wholesome and energising fasting dish made using Shree Siddhivinayak Flour, crushed peanuts, and rock salt. Mix the ingredients with yogurt to form a soft dough, shape into small patties, and roast with a touch of ghee until golden brown on both sides. The result is a crispy, nutty, and aromatic flatbread that keeps you full and satisfied.
- Idli: Soft, light, and fluffy — these idlis are made from Idli Flour that ferments quickly and steams beautifully. Pair them with a coconut chutney made from fasting-friendly ingredients, such as grated coconut, roasted peanuts, and mild chillies, for a simple yet comforting meal.
- Bhajani Dosa: Crisp on the edges and soft in the centre, this dosa uses Bhajani Flour mixed with water, cumin, and fresh coriander for a fragrant twist. Cook on a hot tawa until golden, and serve with curd or peanut chutney for a light and flavour-packed fasting treat.
- Ghavane: A traditional Maharashtrian crepe made using Ghavane Pith. The batter spreads smoothly on the pan and cooks into thin, lacy crepes that pair perfectly with sweetened yogurt or tangy Maharashtrian pickles. It’s a quick and satisfying dish ideal for fasting days.
- Sweet Modak: No fasting day feels complete without Modaks! Using ready-to-cook Modak Mix, make soft, aromatic Modaks with a jaggery-coconut filling that melts in your mouth. The Modak Pith ensures a smooth, pliable dough for perfect shapes and authentic taste — just like homemade ones.
