Shinni ( Sinni, Shinny, Sinny) Recipe

This is usually made in Bengali SatyaNarayan Pujas. The only diffrence between how bengalis do Satyanarayn and the others do it is just this "Shinni" as the main prasad, otherwise everything else is exactly the same.The proportion is important to maintain. I Had a small gathering and hence I made the 5 banana quantity which is the minimum you make.

Ingredients -
  • 300 gms Atta / Wheat Flour
  • 300 gms Sugar / Jaggery
  • 300 ml Milk
  • Cut dry fruits to taste
  • Grated coconut to taste
  • A little cardamom seeds
  • 5 ripe bananas
Method -
  1. Start by mashing the bananas and sugar into a smooth paste with your hands in a puja vessel.
  2. Add Milk & Add Atta and consistency should be that of a cake batter
  3. Pour the remaining and mix well
