Cooking Steps
Steps
Step 1 :
Preheat the oven to 350F (180 C). Spread the nuts on a cooking sheet and bake for seven minutes till fragrant and slightly toasted.
Step 2 :
For the Baklava, after cooling, coarsely grind the nuts, sugar, orange zest, cinnamon powder, vanilla and salt in a blender.
Step 3 :
For the syrup, in a small saucepan over medium heat add the water, 1/4 cup sugar and honey and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until the mixture reduces and slightly thickens in about 10 minutes.
Step 4 :
For the modak covering, bring water to a boil. Add ghee and salt. Add the rice flour and mix. Turn off the heat immediately.
Step 5 :
Cover the pan and let it stand for 10-15 minutes. Apply oil to your hands and knead the mixture into a smooth dough. Cover the dough with a moist cloth.
Step 6 :
Keep a large vessel ready with some water to steam the modak and line a sieve/ strainer/ shallow vessel with a thin cloth.
Step 7 :
Make small round balls with the dough. Press each ball with your fingers to make flat rounds like puris. The flat rounds should be thin and without any cracks.
Step 8 :
Place Baklava filling in the centre of the flat rounds. Add a sugar honey syrup. Mould the dough into modak shape.
Step 9 :
Place these modak into the cloth-lined vessel and steam without any pressure for 15-20 minutes. Garnish with orange zest and serve.
