Sapath


The Sheera offered to God is called ‘Sapath’. The recipe differs slightly, using a generous amount of ghee, milk, and banana pieces.
Today is Varamahalakshmi puja, and one of my aunt mentioned that offering Sapath/Sheera as prasadam is divine. That inspired me to make some, and here’s my version of Sapatha!
The aroma of Sapath filled the entire house, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Ingredients:

  • Bombay suji: 1 cup
  • Sugar: 1 cup
  • Ghee: 1 cup
  • Milk: 3 cups
  • Kesar (saffron): a few strands soaked in milk
  • Cardamom powder: 2 pinches
  • Dry fruits: for garnish
    Method:
  1. Heat ghee in a thick kadai and roast rawa for a few minutes.
  2. Gradually add hot milk, stirring continuously.
  3. Add sugar and cook on low flame.
  4. Add kesar soaked in a tsp of milk, cover the lid for a few seconds.
  5. Add cardamom powder.
  6. Garnish with ghee-roasted dry fruits.
    P.s Adjust ghee and sugar as per your needs. I removed some ghee later.
    I added 2cups of milk and 1 cup of water by mixing it together .
