Puttu or Steam Rice powder is a Kerala traditional recipe.Earlier days people use to soak raw rice in water for 4 hrs , then drain and powder it in a mixer.Finally with this powder Puttu was prepared.But now a days Puttu powder is readily available in .There are two types of puttu powder mainly. One is rose coloured powder named Chemba rice powder the other one is the normal white rice powder.Chemba puttu is more tastier than white puttu.For today's recipe I have used white rice powder. To this powder I added milk powder and coconut powder.Then sprinkled water slowly and mixed it well.We can serve this along with Egg roast, Egg curry, Beef curry, Beef masala, Mutton stew, Chicken items.Now a days people have invented varity in Puttu like fish puttu, prawns puttu, chicken puttu, beef puttu etc.Now let us see the preparation.
