Chiratta Puttu & Chenda Murian

Wheat flour Chiratta Puttu with Chenda Murian

Puttu is usually made in a mould called "Puttu Kutti".Now instead of that puttu kutty maker I used a "Chiratta puttumaker"because the upper part of this puttumaker (The mould) resembles a "Chiratta" (which is coconut shell shape). The mould  is a small steel bowl with a loose fitting metal top. Chiratta puttu may also steamed by placing the mould on top of a pressure cooker. The mould has a small hole in the bottom,it has to be attached to a pressure cooker where the weight goes.Through the small hole in the bottom, steam can pass to the flour. You can also use Iddli mould or a Fresh coconut shell to make Puttu.
