Puttu is a beloved traditional breakfast dish from Kerala, typically made using rice flour. In this healthier twist, we swap rice flour for sprouted ragi flour, making it an excellent choice for those managing diabetes or seeking weight loss options. This diabetic-friendly ragi puttu is rich in fiber and nutrients, offering a delicious start to the day while being completely vegan and vegetarian-friendly. It pairs perfectly with any side dish, allowing versatility in your daily meals.
Ingredients
2
1 cup Sprouted ragi flour
half cup Grated Coconut
quarter teaspoon Salt
three quarters cup Water
Tips
The water content is crucial; ensure the ragi flour is moist but not wet to achieve the perfect softness.
Adding a pinch of cardamom or a sprinkle of sugar can enhance the flavor, especially when paired with sweet side dishes.
If you don't have a puttu maker, use any cylindrical steamer, filling it tightly to mimic the traditional cooking method.
Directions
Begin by mixing the sprouted ragi flour with salt in a bowl. Gradually add water and rub the mixture with your fingertips until it reaches a crumbly texture.
Take a puttu maker or a steamer and layer it with a little grated coconut at the bottom. Add a layer of the moist ragi mixture, followed by another layer of coconut. Repeat the layering until all the ingredients are used up, finishing with a coconut layer on top.
Steam the layered puttu mixture for about 10 minutes or until steam starts coming out from the top of the puttu maker. Ensure the steamer is covered throughout the cooking process.
Once cooked, remove the puttu carefully and serve warm with a side dish of your choice like banana, papadam, or a curry.
Notes
Individuals with kidney issues should consume ragi in moderation due to its high potassium content.
