Kothu Puttu

Kothu Puttu
A variety created to manage the leftover puttu in a healthy way. I have seen people wasting food without finding ways to recycle it. Rather than steaming again in puttu maker you can try this with veggies. I used the left over chickpeas curry too J but with fresh wheat puttu to make this recipe.


Ingredients
Steamed puttu (wheat/raw rice) – 2 pieces
Onion – chopped, 1
Carrot – chopped, 1
Cabbage – chopped ¼ bowl
Green chilli - chopped, 1
Oil – 2 tbsp
Salt – a pinch
Water – to cook
Curry leaves – a sprig
Coriander leaves – a sprig
Chickpeas/Chicken Curry (optional)


Method:
Heat oil in a kadai – add chopped onion curry leaves and fry till it turns golden brown. 
Add chopped carrot, cabbage and green chillies with salt and cook well with adequate amount of water. 
Reduce the flame - mix puttu with the cooked veggies and Chickpeas/Chicken curry. 
Sprinkle chopped coriander leaves. Serve hot with papadams.  


Note:

  •  Use leftover chick peas/ potato/vegetable curry/stew to double the taste
  •  Can use Eastern Chicken Masala powder instead of curry.
