Ragi Puttu


Ingredients:
Ragi flour/kezhvaragu maavu - 1.5 cup
Salt - 2 pinches
Grated coconut - as per taste



Method:
1. In a bowl, add ragiflour and salt. Mix. Pour required water little by little and mix with your hands. Mix till the ragi resembles like bread crumbs.
2. I steamed ragi flour in a puttu maker. In the base (puttu kudam) of puttu maker, pour water till it fills half of the kudam. Bring it to a boil. Meanwhile fill the cylindrical vessel with ragiflour, then coconut, again ragi flour, coconut and so on......Continue this process till it reaches the brim (don't press).
3. Cover and place the cylindrical vessel in the puttu kudam. Steam for 10 minutes. After 5 minutes, remove and enjoy with chana masala or with banana or mix with sugar and cardamom powder or your choice. :)
