Ingredients

• 1 cup Gluten-free Sathumavu flour
• 0.75 cup Water
• 0.5 cup Grated coconut
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine gluten-free Sathumavu flour with salt.

Step 2

Gradually add water to the flour mixture while mixing with your fingers. The mixture should be crumbly and moist, but not form a dough.

Step 3

To check the right consistency, take a small portion of the mix and press it in your fist. It should hold its shape but crumble when dropped.

Step 4

Prepare your steaming vessel by filling it with water and bringing it to a boil.

Step 5

If using a Puttu maker, first add a layer of grated coconut at the bottom.

Step 6

Add a layer of the Sathumavu flour mixture over the coconut layer, creating alternating layers of coconut and mixture, finishing with coconut on top.

Step 7

Cover the Puttu maker with its lid and place it on the steaming vessel, allowing it to steam for about 7-10 minutes or until you see steam escaping from the top.

Step 8

Carefully remove the Puttu and slide it onto a plate using a skewer or a long stick.

Step 9

Serve hot with banana, sugar, or any curry of your choice.
