Ingredients
- 1 cup Sathumavu (multigrain health mix)
- 0.5 cup Grated coconut
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Water
- 0.25 teaspoon Cardamom powder
- 1 tablespoon Stevia or Erythritol (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of Sathumavu with 0.25 teaspoon of salt.
Step 2
Gradually add 0.5 cup of water, a little at a time. Use your fingertips to mix the flour and water to form a crumbly texture. The mixture should be moist but not soggy.
Step 3
Test the consistency by taking a small amount of mixture in your hand and pressing it. It should hold its shape without crumbling.
Step 4
If using, mix 1 tablespoon of Stevia or Erythritol gently into the flour mixture at this stage.
Step 5
Layer 2 tablespoons of grated coconut at the bottom of the puttu steamer (puttu kutti) and then add 3-4 tablespoons of the flour mixture.
Step 6
Repeat the layering process with grated coconut and flour mixture until the puttu steamer is filled, finishing with a layer of grated coconut.
Step 7
Cover the puttu steamer with its lid and place it over the boiling water in the base vessel (puttu kudam).
Step 8
Steam for about 10-15 minutes, or until you see steam escaping from the top vents of the puttu steamer.
Step 9
Remove the puttu steamer from heat and allow it to cool slightly. Push the puttu out gently onto a serving plate using a small spatula or the back end of a spoon.
Step 10
Sprinkle 0.25 teaspoon of cardamom powder over the puttu for extra flavor.
Step 11
Serve warm, accompanied with coconut milk, or enjoy as is for a nutritious, sugar-free breakfast.
