Puttu ( Steam Cake )
The most popular breakfast of Kerala
 |
| Ingredients: |
|
|
| Rice flour |
- |
2 cups |
| Grated coconut |
- |
1 cup |
| Water |
- |
1/2 cup |
| Salt to taste |
|
|
|
Method:
Add salt and approximately 3
table spoons of grated coconut into the flour and mix well. Add water little by
little to the rice flour and mix it. The flour should be wet
enough for steaming, but we have to be careful when you add water to the
flour. The consistency has got to be right. It should not become too
watery. Puttu has to be made in a Puttu maker. Layer
the Puttu maker with some grated coconut first, then the rice mixture and then
the grated coconut again. Steam for 2-3 minutes, take out and serve hot.
You can have Puttu with either Kadala
Curry/steamed plantains or bananas.
