It's been some time since I have written a post. Now that I have lots of time, I thought about building up a note that I had written few years back. It is about Puttu. What is Puttu ? Puttu is a food dish usually made up of rice powder and grated cocunut. Rice powder (with required salt) is made wet by mixing with water using hands. It is not supposed to be too wet or too dry. Well, there are lots of links available online on how to make the perfect puttu. I'm not going into those details. Next the wet rice powder mix is filled into a vessel (usually a cylindrical shaped one) together with grated cocunut. First put some grated cocunut and then the rice powder mix. Add cocunut to the layer wherever you want seperation or if you like cocunut a lot. Usually at the top of the cylindrical vessel also, we fill the grated cocunut. Now that the filling is ready, we have to steam it. We take a pot, fill it with water and fix the cylindrical vessel on top of the pot. Heat the pot
