A modak(Marathi: मोदक) is a sweet dumpling popular in Western and Southern India. It is called "modak" (मोदक) in Marathi and Konkani as well as Gujarati language, "Sughiyan" (സുഖിയൻ) in Malayalam, "modhaka" or "kadubu" in Kannada, "modhaka" or "kozhakkattai" in Tamil, and "kudumu" in Telugu.
The sweet filling inside a modak is made up of fresh grated coconut and jaggery, while the soft shell is made from rice flour, or wheat flour mixed with khava or maida flour. The dumpling can be fried or steamed. The steamed version, called "ukdiche modak", is eaten hot with ghee.
