Godache wade (sweet wada)

Godache wade are made by grinding the rice and fermenting it for 4 - 5 days. Traditionally only rice is used throughout the recipe, but using all purpose flour makes them softer.

Ingredients:

Boiled rice : 1 cup

Coconut : 1 & 1/2 cup

Jaggery : 1/2 cup

Rice flour / All purpose flour (maida) : around 1 & 1/2 cup + extra for dusting

Bananas : 4 (small variety)

Salt : to taste

Procedure:

Soak the rice overnight and grind them to a doughy batter.

Put the ground rice in a cotton cloth and tie it tightly; then hang it to drain out the water if any. Let it ferment this way for 3 - 4 days. If it is not ventilated on both sides turn it front side back every day to avoid mould.

Grind the coconut along with jaggery without using any water; mash the bananas and add salt and the fermented rice and mix well.

Now add the AP flour or rice flour to obtain a dough consistency.

Take a lemon size portion of the dough and make a round ball; then flatten it on the palm or rolling pan (3 - 4 mm thickness) by pressing it with the base of the thumb. Use some AP flour for dusting if you find it sticky to handle.
