Among the varied number of chettinad spread of delicacies this rangoon puttu is a special variety of snacky sweet treat that should never be missed. The very name Chettinad rangoon puttu is an influence brought from Rangoon by the chettiyar community while they had their business there. While I was watching a cookery show on tv got to know about this recipe and was eager to try. It had more resemblance to rava kesari but some ingredients added makes it different in taste and texture. We are using jaggery here and it all becomes a totally different
take on this wonderful dish. Some add water instead of milk to rava but I personally feel that milk should be added for exact taste and flavour. Always add hot boiling milk to rava so that it cooks quickly and thoroughly. You can boil quarter cup of moong dal to get one cup of boiled moong dal. Don’t add more water while dissolving jaggery it will affect the consistency of the puttu. Do try this Chettinad rangoon puttu recipe as a snack you will surely love it.
