In a pan add water, oil or ghee and salt and bring to a boil.
Reduce the flame and add the rice flour gradually. Quickly stir and mix the flour with the water. Stir till all the rice flour is mixed with the water.
Switch off the flame. Cover and set aside for 10 minutes.
Now take the dough in a large plate and knead to dough till smooth and supple.
If you feel the dough looks dense or hard or dry, then just add a few teaspoons of warm water and continue to knead.
Make small balls from the dough. Roll the balls till smooth in your palms.
Take a ball and flatten it with your fingers to a round disc or a shallow bowl shape. You can apply ghee or oil in your palms while flattening. Place the sweet filling in the center.
Flute and press the edges. Bring together all the edges and join them. Remove the extra portion of the dough from the top, if any. Shape and taper the top of the modak with your fingers.
Grease the steamer with a bit of ghee or oil.
