Dudh soi pitha, milk-soaked rice dumplings

Directions

1. First, prepare small pancakes using a rice flour-based batter in a pan. ≈ 3 min
2. Gently heat the milk, then add the cardamom and cinnamon. ⏱ ≈ 40 min
3. Melt the jaggery in a small amount of water, then filter it to remove any impurities. ⏱ ≈ 7 min
4. When the milk has cooled slightly, add the jaggery syrup. Milk that is too hot can curdle. ⏱ ≈ 20 min
5. Place the pancakes and shredded coconut in the milk and syrup mixture. ≈ 3 min
6. Let the mixture soak for at least 5 to 6 hours, or even overnight: the pancakes will absorb the milk and become soft. ⏱ 6 hr
