Jackfruit Puttu

Chakka puttu

 Ingredients:

    Jackfruit: 10-15, chopped
    Puttu Podi: 1 cup or as needed
    Grate coconut: 1/2 cup
    Salt: 1/4 tsp
    Water as needed to mix puttu podi

  METHOD:

    Make puttu podi by mixing with water and salt. For detailed post pls visit my puttu recipe post (link given above).
    Chop jackfruits and mix with coconut or you can also avoid mixing in coconut; its just a personal choice.
    If not mixing with coconut; add in 1-2 tbsp of coconut on the puttu kutti and top with 2 tbsp of jackfruit and then top it with puttu podi. If, mixing with coconut, just add in the coconut mixed jackfruit (about 2 tbsp or more if you like jackfruits) and then top with puttu podi.
    Place on the puttu kudam or on the hob of the pressure cooker (like I did here) and allow it to steam for 3 mins on medium flame.
    Invert to a plate and serve.

NOTES
    Chakka puttu is a healthy traditional kerala breakfast.
    Once the jackfruit is cooked it will be come soft and mushy, hence it is easy to give to kids by mixing it into the puttu.
