Mango Puttu/Mambhaza Puttu

 Mango Puttu Recipe | Mambhaza Puttu

 Puttu is usually a breakfast dish served hot with either sweet side dishes such as palm sugar or banana, or savoury with chana masala, chutney. Puttu is usually prepared with plain roasted rice flour and grated coconut. Apart from normal white puttu,I tried something different using ripe Mangoes to make Mango Puttu .I made this during this mango season and it is yum. Adding yummy ripe mangoes to it makes it more delicious and healthier. You may not need any accompaniments with Mango Puttu.

 

Ingredients:

 Roasted Rice Flour / Store Bought Puttu Podi  - 2 cup

 Ripe sweet mangoes, roughly chopped as required

 Grated Coconut as required

 Salt -pinch

Sugar- 2 tbsp ( Optional)

 Method:

Prepare the rice flour mix:

In a bowl, take roasted puttu podi and a pinch of salt. Pour Mango puree (4-5 tbsp) little by little into the rice flour. 

Using fingers until it reaches a crumbly texture. When you press some flour between fingers, it should hold shape but crumble easily when touched. That’s the right consistency.

Layer the Puttu:

In a puttu maker start layering. First, a spoon of grated coconut, then a layer of mango pieces and then rice flour mix. Repeat the layers and end with grated coconut on top.

Steam the Puttu:

Place the puttu maker on top of the boiling pot or pressure cooker lid (without weight). Steam for 7–10 minutes.

  Serve:

Gently push out the steamed puttu onto a plate. Serve hot with ripe mango pieces.!
