In a large mixing bowl, combine the Sathumavu maavu (multi-grain flour) and salt.
Gradually add water to the flour mixture, mixing gently with your fingers as you go. The goal is to achieve a moist, crumbly texture similar to wet sand. Ensure there are no lumps, and the mixture is evenly moist.
Take a handful of the mixture and gently press it in your fist; it should hold its shape then crumble with a slight push. This is the correct texture for steaming. Adjust water if necessary.
Prepare the puttu steamer by adding water to the base and bringing it to a boil.
In the cylindrical part of the steamer, layer 2 tablespoons of grated coconut at the bottom. Then add a layer of the moist flour mixture about an inch thick. Repeat the layers, ending with a layer of grated coconut.
Cover and place the cylindrical steamer over the base with boiling water, allowing it to cook for about 10-15 minutes on medium high heat.
When steam starts appearing from the top of the steamer, and the puttu appears cooked, remove from heat.
Gently slide the cooked puttu onto a plate using the handle of a spoon or stick.
Serve hot with dairy-free vegetable curry, banana, or any chutney of your choice.
