1/2 The equivalent amount of fine thari, soaked for hour
can You also use suji/rava but the texture will be more grainy than that of kulae puttu made with soaked and ground rice
250 gram Jackfruit pulp or ripe banana pulp
1/4 Coconut 1/4 to be grated and the rest sliced into thin slivers about 1 cm long
0.13 teaspoon Baking soda . it makes for a less dense cake, but i prefer the version without
100 As required Gms jaggery
As required If youre using banana pulp, add a little ground cardamom to the mixture
1/2 pinch Salt
12.50 piece Banana leaf, of about 83x 63
can Banana leaves need to be heated briefly to soften them and make them flexible enough to fold without breaking. this be done by pressing them on a heated griddle, passing them gently over a flame, or, as i do, tossing them in a hot oven briefly
As required Grind the soaked rice to a smooth paste with a little water
spoon Combine the ground rice with the jaggery, jackfruit pulp, coconut, salt, and baking soda if youre using it. mix thoroughly. you should have a soft, moist batter that is thick enough into the banana leaves without being too runny
15 tablespoon Place two the batter in the centre a banana leaf wrapper and fold gently into a rectangular parcel. have your sekala ready with water at a simmer and layer the parcels in as you prepare them. when theyre all done, cover and steam on medium high for about minutes
