      Interesting Puttu !I am a great fan of puttu's and on my trip to Kerela, I picked a puttu maker. I have used it only thrice in the last 8-10 years , but it gives me a a good feel that I possess a cookware which I might need. lol.I think I should use it more often .

      Interesting puttu recipe. I've yet to taste puttu. I think I should buy a puttu maker when I go next to India so I can make it at home as it doesn't seem too difficult. And we get a lot of fresh cassava in Mombasa.
