Puttu - Steamed Rice Cake.

On the "Mother's day" I'm posting my Mom's Puttu.


Puttu is the traditional breakfast of Kerala .
It's a steamed rice cake with coconut gratings.
In ancient times, Puttu is prepared in coconut shell or bamboo.
Puttu  prepared in coconut shell is called "Chiratta Puttu" & the one prepared in bamboo is " Kana Puttu".
Puttu makers in steel /aluminium are available in Indian stores.
