Kerala Puttum payarum/Steamed rice cakes with whole moong dal curry - A healthy breakfast

Ingredients for puttu
Rice flour - 2 cups
Water - 3/4 to 1 cup
Salt
Grated coconut - 1 cup

Directions
Mix rice flour and salt. Wet the rice flour-salt mixture by sprinkling water  little by little. Keep aside for 1/2 an hour. Grind the set  aside mixture for a few seconds (This is to get a soft puttu mixture) (You can completely skip this, I often skip this, and I am satisfied with the result - tasty steamed cakes). If you are using a puttu maker, add some grated coconut, followed by set aside puttu mixture. Form 3 layers, one of grated coconut on bottom, sandwiched by puttu mixture in between, then again grated coconut on top. After layering the puttu in a  puttumaker. Fill the pressure cooker with little water. Place the puttu maker on the nozzle of the pressure cooker. Close puttu maker with the lid. After steam starts to come, lower the flame, then it takes 2-3 minutes for the steamed cakes to get ready. Enjoy with Cherupayar curry, Kerala Kadala Curry, or Egg roast.
