Puttu Podi is a traditional South Indian dish that hails from the state of Kerala, known for its rich culinary heritage. It is a type of steamed rice cake made from a unique blend of rice flour and grated coconut. The word "Puttu" itself translates to "portioned" or "divided" in Malayalam, the language of Kerala, aptly describing the dish's distinctive cylindrical shape.
The primary ingredient in Puttu Podi is rice flour, which is finely ground to achieve a soft and powdery texture. This flour is then mixed with grated coconut, adding a delightful hint of sweetness and texture to the dish. The combination of rice and coconut not only imparts a delicious taste but also offers a balanced nutritional profile.
Preparing Puttu involves layering the rice-coconut mixture in a cylindrical vessel called a "Puttu kutti" or steamer. This vessel has multiple sections to allow for the layering of the flour and coconut mixture, creating the iconic cylindrical shape. The steaming process is crucial, as it ensures that the Puttu cooks evenly and attains a light, fluffy consistency.
Puttu Podi is incredibly versatile and can be paired with various accompaniments. It is commonly served with Kadala Curry, a flavorful black chickpea curry, creating a perfect balance of textures and flavors. Alternatively, it can be enjoyed with ripe bananas, grated coconut, or even with a dollop of ghee for added richness.
This dish holds cultural significance and is often prepared during festive occasions, family gatherings, and breakfast. Its popularity extends beyond Kerala, with variations found in other South Indian states. The simplicity of its ingredients, coupled with the unique steaming method, makes Puttu Podi a beloved and enduring part of South Indian cuisine, reflecting the region's culinary diversity and cultural richness.
