Bhapa Pitha

Instructions

1. 1

   In a mixing bowl, combine the rice flour with water to form a smooth batter. The consistency should be thick but pourable.

6. 6

   Cover the filling with another layer of rice flour batter.

   Steam the molds in a steamer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the pithas are cooked through and firm.

8. 8

   Allow the pithas to cool slightly before removing them from the molds.

   Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Bhapa Pitha.
