Puttu

description Puttu Overview

Puttu is a traditional South Indian breakfast dish, primarily associated with Kerala, made from coarse rice flour steamed with grated coconut in a cylindrical mold. The dry roasting of the rice flour and the layering with coconut yield a distinct, crumbly yet soft texture. It is most commonly served for breakfast alongside spicy chickpea curry known as kadala curry, palm sugar, or ripe bananas.
