WHEAT PUTTU


Ingredients:
Wheat flour - 2 cups
Salt - To taste
Water - 1/4 cup

Method:
Mix salt in water and add the water little by little to the wheat flour and mix it.Using your fingers keep mixing till the flour starts looking like crumbs. Donot add too much water or else it would turn into chapathi dough. Let the moistened wheat flour rest for about 10 minutes.
Grind the moistened wheat flour in "pulse mode" for 5 secs.The flour would have turned into fine powder from crumbs. Also dont pulse too much else the flour will become a ball instead of powder.
Now add a fistful full of grated coconut in the puttu maker and then add the wheat flour till half, then add another handful of coconut. This is done till you reach the top of the cylindrical shape.
Close the lid and steam for 8 - 10 minutes.

Serve with moong gram curry or sugar.
