Hello friends,

Today I am going to share a healthy snack recipe- Steamed Veg Modaks.
Modaks are usually made with rice flour. But in my version, am using wheat flour for the outer covering and stuffing veggies inside, making them more healthy & delicious.

Cooking Instructions

1 hour 30 minut
  1. 1

    Sieve wheat flour and salt in a broad plate. Add boiling water little by little and keep mixing with spatula. Knead the mixture with hand to make a soft dough. Set aside.

  2. 2

    To make the vegetable filling, heat oil in a wide pan, add the chopped green chillies and ginger garlic paste and mix well. Add the chopped onions and saute for 3 mins till they turn translucent.

  3. 3

    Add the chopped carrot and cook for 3-4 mins on medium heat. Add the chopped cabbage and cook for at least 8-10 mins. Then add the capsicum & saute for 2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add turmeric powder, red chilli powder, salt and garam masala powder and mix well. Turn off the heat and allow to come to room temperature.

  5. 5

    To make modaks, knead the dough again for 2-3 mins and pinch out small lemon sized balls of the dough and dust with flour. Roll out each ball into a round shape. It should not be too thick or too thin in thickness.

  6. 6

    Place a tablespoon of the prepared vegetable filling in the center of each rolled out circle. Do not overstuff as it will be difficult to form a meat pouch shape.

  7. 7

    Beginning at one end of the flat circle, gather the edge to form pleats working your way around the circle. Bring the pleats together to form a pouch-like dumpling and seal the top.

  8. 8

    Fill and shape all the rolled out circles into pouch-like dumplings. Grease an idli steamer with oil and place the shaped dumplings leaving a little space between each of them. Fill a vessel with water and bring to boil.

  9. 9

    Once the water starts to boil, place the steamer in the vessel and cover with lid. Steam on high heat for 10 mins. They are done cooking when they are not sticky to touch.

  10. 10

    Serve hot with tomato sauce or any Chutney of your choice.
