About Samba pacharisi puttu

Samba Pacharisi Puttu is a traditional South Indian steamed rice dish made from Samba Pacharisi, a variety of unpolished rice known for its rich nutritional profile. The rice is soaked, ground, and mixed with a small amount of grated coconut before being steamed in cylindrical molds. This wholesome dish is a staple in Tamil Nadu cuisine and is typically served with banana or jaggery for added sweetness. Samba Pacharisi is a complex carbohydrate and a source of essential nutrients like iron, magnesium, and fiber, aiding digestion and promoting sustained energy. The steaming process ensures minimal oil use, making it a heart-healthy choice. However, pairing it with sugary sides like jaggery or high-calorie accompaniments can increase its calorie content. Ideal for breakfast or a light meal, Samba Pacharisi Puttu highlights the balance between traditional flavors and nutritional benefits in South Indian cooking.
