Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup health mix flour
  • salt to taste
  • 2 tablespoon coconut
  • water as needed
  • 2 cups water for steaming
  • cane sugar as needed for serving

Instructions

  • Dry roast flour for 3-5 mins in low flame, make sure to do this only in low flame to avoid flour getting burnt.
  • Cool down completely, then transfer to a bowl add required salt to it. Mix it well first.
  • Add water little by little and keep mixing. When you take and hold the flour tight it should form shape.
  • And when you crumble it should fall apart easily, thats the perfect consistency for soft puttu. It should be sandy in texture.
  • You can even add a tablespoon of coconut in this mixture too. Set aside. Add water to a pressure cooker.
  • Meanwhile to the puttu maker, add coconut to the bottom then add the prepared mixture till slightly below the rim. Pat it well, press it slightly to have a even top.
  • When it starts to smoke through the cooker hole place puttu maker, steam cook for 3 mins or until smoke comes through both the holes in the puttu maker.
  • Gently open and invert on a plate to demould.
  • Serve Sathu Maavu Puttu hot with coconut and cane sugar!

Notes

  • My homemade health mix already has cardamom in it so I didnt add it.If you prefer you can add a pinch of cardamom powder as per taste.
  • While mixing add ghee, cane sugar mix well and enjoy.
  • If you want you can serve it with any curry of your choice.
