Originated from India, it is made from flour, water and coconut. Then steamed. Now how did it become like strands of beehoon shaped round? The batter was placed in a rattan shaped little "basket" with holes on the base then batter sifts straight down. As it sifts, the chef will go in a circular motion causing the putu mayam to be rounded.

I had this at the Wild Market. Freshly made onsite which is very rare nowadays. Mostly eaten with shredded coconut and palm sugar. A very simple but delicious breakfast or snack. Oh and by the way... putu mayam means "string hoppers". #putumayam #oldschool #hungrygowhere #burpple #openricesg #stfoodtrending #8dayseat #nomnom #sgbloggers #sgfoodies #sgfollowers #instafoodsg #instafoodies #instafollow #discoversg #traditional #tpasg
