Pittu

Sri lankan Pittu

2 cups rice flour (red or white)
2 cups flour
2 cups shredded coconut (or 1 1/2 cups desiccated coconut soaked in 3/4 cup of water)
Salt to taste

Steam the wheat flour (I now do this in the microwave. Just put the flour in a microwave safe bowl and heat for a minute. Check to see if the flour has clumped together, if not put in for another minute, continue till it has clumped (Take care not to burn it).
Next mix all ingredients in a large bowl and roll with the thumb to make small granules. Add water little by little.

Or

Put the ingredients into a food processor and pulse adding water little by little to achieve the same consistency.
Take care not to make it too wet. If so add a little bit of rice flour.
Fill the pipe of the Pittu maker and steam till the steam comes out of the lid for 3-5 minutes. Un-mold and serve hot with Lunu miris and salted and heated coconut milk.
