Teler Pithe

Methods

• Heat ½ cup water in a non-stick pan, add jaggery and cook till it melts.
• To make pithe, take rice flour in a bowl, add refined flour, dates, melted jaggery and little water and mix to make a smooth dough.
• Heat oil and ghee in a kadai.
• Divide the dough into small balls and deep-fry the ghee-oil till golden. Drain on absorbent paper.
• Once the excess oil is soaked up, arrange the balls or pithe on a serving platter.
• To make caramelized bananas, heat sugar in another non-stick pan and let it melt. When the sugar melts, cut the bananas into small pieces and add and mix well.
• Put some of this banana mixture on each pithe, drizzle strawberry crush all around them and serve.
