Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Mix the coconut, grated jaggery and cardamom powder in heavy bottomed pan. Cook it for 7-8 minutes or till water dries up and it becomes slight sticky. Allow it cool down to room temperature.

* Step 2

First, start boiling 1 1/4 cup of water with 1/4 tsp of salt on high flame. once the water starts boiling, slow down the flame to its minimum and add 1 cup of rice flour to it with continuous stirring. Switch off the flame immediately. First knead it with a spatula and then use your hand(carefully as it’s hot) to make a soft and smooth dough of it.

* Step 3

Then first make some small size dough or balls. Turn it into a thin(as much as you can) flat disc by pressing its sides down by fingertips or just roll it out with a rolling pin

* Step 4

Put 1 tsp coconut filling into the middle of the disc. Then seal the edges of the puli pitha and first give it a shape of a half-moon. after making all coconut stuffing dumplings, cover it with a damp cloth to retain its moisture

* Step 5

Take 1 litre full-fat milk in a wide pan and put it on medium flame. When the milk starts boiling then slow down the heat. Add 3 crushed cardamom pods
