Greeting my dear friends. Welcome to my new recipe post. In the current winter season, people of our country love winter pithas very much, so today I will share with you the recipe for making Vhapa pitha. It was made in my village house and I made it myself from there, so I am sharing the method of making Vhapa pitha that I made in the morning.

Ingredients for making pitha

Date molasses	Coconut	Rice flour

Now let's start making Vhapa pitha

Step : 01

In a bowl, take the most important ingredient for making pitha, rice flour, and mix some salt into the rice flour.

Step : 02

Then mix some water into the rice flour mixed with salt.

Step : 03

Rice flour mixed with water and salt Now mix these three ingredients well.

Step : 04

Now in another bowl, strain the rice flour through a mesh sieve and separate the soft rice flour for making pitha.

Step : 05

Now, in a clay stove, take some water in a pot, light a fire in the clay stove, heat the water, and cover the pot with a lid.

Step : 06

Now, in a small clay pot, place the soft dough according to the size of the pot.

Step : 07

Then mix some coconut on the rice flour in the clay pot.

Step : 08

Then, the rice flour and coconut placed on the clay sheet are evenly distributed according to the size of the pot.

Step : 09

Again, mix some date molasses on the rice flour and coconut kept on a small earthen pot.

Step : 10

Now add some more rice flour on top of the rice flour, coconut and date molasses.

Step : 11

Then, place rice flour, coconut, date molasses, and rice flour again evenly on the clay pot according to the specific size of the clay pot.

Step : 12

Now I use a net to keep the various ingredients for the pitha, which are kept in small clay pots, in the heat of hot water on the stove.

Step : 13

Now place the small clay pot for making pitha, surrounded by a net, on the lid of the hot water so that the pitha in the clay pot is cooked by the heat of the water.

Step : 14

Leave the pitha wrapped in a net on the lid of the pot of water for some time so that the pitha stays in the heat of the water for a longer time.

Step : 15

Now, cover the pitha placed on top of the pot of water with a lid for some time so that the pitha is cooked well in the heat of the water.

Step : 16

After boiling the cake in hot water for more than five minutes, remove the lid.

Step : 17

After the water has heated up the pitha, I will carefully look at the pitha and see if it is cooked properly.

Step 18

Once the pitha is well cooked in the water, I will remove it from the heat of the water and serve the pitha in a bowl in front of everyone.
