Hi Friends today we will learn how to make Gokul Pitha. its a very very tasty recipe. Gokul pitha is a popular bengali pitha recipe made during winter fe. Considering the busy schedules of urban milieu, the only pithes that we are able to make to embrace Shankranti these days are Pathi shapta, Gokul pithe and Chitol pithe. These are our quick-fix solutions of catering to Poush Shankranti cravings.

Steps to make Gokul Pitha/Pitha: Another Lost Recipe from Bengal:

1. First Up: We need to prepare our filings for these Gokul Pithe & let it cool down completely or substantially, before stuffing it inside the same…The link for preparing the Homemade Mawa Fillings are already shared herein, kindly check that out 👍🏻 - Also, prepare the sugar syrup post this (Please checkout my earlier recipes on it- Shall share the link herein) & let it sit on the hot oven for its later use - (see recipe)
2. Next is to prepare the very Batter for the same: Add in a mixing bowl- Add in the aforesaid measured all the ingredients for the same & blend nicely smooth into a thick batter (Something that should be good enough to coat the Pithas well, all over & not start drip off)- Set Aside for about 15-30 mins time- for the Suji to bloom a bit coz, post the given time- the batter might tend to thicken quite a bit (in that case, we need to adjust its consistency by adding a little more warm milk or water)
3. Once the Mawa Mixture is cooled down now- Divide them into the Lemon sized balls, flatten them a bit by pressing gently with the help of your palms- Coat them nicely with the already prepared batter & then roll them out in the Shredded Coconut (Desiccated-Though, this step is optional- However, I prefer doing it this way) & then once more into the batter & place them in a separate plate, one by one
4. Heat up a heavy bottomed pan or frying pan over the medium flame: Add in the required sufficient oil or ghee or the combination of both- Let warm up (It need be just warmed up & not hot)- That’s the keynote herein, once the Pithas are dropped in- they should very slowly start come up to the surface upto the pan & not immediately (only then, we get to know that our oil temperature is just perfect
5. Remember, not to overcrowd the wok/pan/vessel in which these are fried- They need some space in between to inflate (which’s required & then you’d understand that they’re perfectly prepared without any flaws)- Fry them in batches- Depending on the size of your pan/wok/vessel & once they’re all fried- Transfer them onto a kitchen towel or can directly soak them into our already prepared warm sugar syrup (if it gets cold- Warm it up before soaking the Pithas into it) - (see recipe)
6. Allow them to be soaked into the warm sugar syrup properly to drink enough of it for about 20-30 mins time, at least & not more than an hour’s time- Else, they’ll tend to break & that’s not what we’re looking out for…it need be well soaked, moist & juicy from inside & crispy from outside 👍🏻
7. They’re now just ready to be grabbed immediately or can keep it to be served later as well- It can be well kept in the RT for about a day or two…However, post one day it’s recommended to refrigerate, depending on the weather, temperature & moisture content of the place you’re stationed…Dish out- Garnish it your way & there you go….
8. Enjoy
