Radha Ashtami Special 2025: After Janmashtami, devotees of Kanha have now started preparing for Radha Rani’s birthday. Radha Ashtami is celebrated every year on the Ashtami date of the Shukla Paksha of the Bhadrapada month, and this year, this holy festival will be celebrated on August 31.

It is believed that Radha Rani came to earth on this day. Radha Ashtami is also called Radha Jayanti. On this day, devotees worship Radha-Krishna together and try to please Radha Rani by offering her favourite bhog.

If you also want to get the blessings of Radha Rani on this Radha Ashtami, then you can offer her homemade Halwai-style Rabri Malpua. It is easy to make and also very tasty to eat. Let’s know how to make it.

Ingredients required to make Rabri Malpua:

For Rabri:

1 litre of milk

For Malpua batter:

1 cup wheat flour

1 teaspoon semolina

2 cardamoms

Finely chopped nuts (almonds, pistachios)

For syrup:

3/4 cup jaggery

2 cups water

For frying:

Ghee

For garnishing:

Finely chopped nuts

Rose petals

Method of making Rabri Malpua:

Make Rabri: First, boil 1 litre of milk in a large vessel, stirring continuously on a low flame, until it has reduced to half. When the milk has thickened to half its original volume, turn off the gas.

Make syrup: In a separate vessel, boil 2 cups of water and jaggery. Cook until the jaggery dissolves completely and the syrup thickens slightly. Keep in mind that the syrup should neither be too thin nor too thick.

Prepare the Malpua batter: Now, add flour, semolina, cardamom and nuts to the rabri and mix well. Make sure there are no lumps in the batter.

Fry the Malpua: Heat ghee in a pan. When the ghee is hot, gently drop a tablespoon of the batter into the hot ghee. Fry till golden brown on both sides.

Serve: Immediately dip the fried Malpua in the jaggery syrup and let it sit for a few seconds. Transfer to a plate and garnish with chopped nuts and rose petals, and serve hot.
