Poda pitha is the most authentic and the must-to-be-prepared dish for Raja festival in all Odia households. The odia word 'Poda' means Burnt and 'Pitha' means Cake. But here is a version I have come up with where there is no need of any banana leaves or any micro oven, still the authentic crust will be formed all over the pitha or cake. Also I have not used any lentil in the cake dough. Simply only the rice flour is used. The whole process is cooked over low heat. The outer crust is slightly burnt, while the inside is so soft and delicious. This dish is also offered as prasad to Lord Jagannath in the Jagannath Temple, Puri.
Would love to try this.
