Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup fine rava (semolina)
  • ½ cup fresh grated coconut
  • ½ cup warm milk (adjust as needed)
  • 1–2 tsp powdered jaggery or palm sugar
  • A pinch of cardamom powder
  • 1 tbsp mixed dry fruits (chopped)
  • 1-2 tbsp ghee

Method
 

  1. Dry roast rava on low flame until aromatic. Cool completely.
  2. Sprinkle warm milk little by little over the rava.
  3. Mix with fingers until you get a moist, crumbly texture. When pressed, it should hold shape but crumble easily.
  4. Steam for 8–10 minutes until soft and cooked. Heat 1–2 teaspoons of ghee in a small pan.
  5. Add finely chopped dry fruits and saute on low flame until aromatic.
  6. Pour the warm ghee and dry fruits over the steamed puttu.
  7. Gently mix or sprinkle on top before serving.
