Red Rice Puttu | Red Rice Steamed Cylindrical Cake | South Indian Breakfast

Puttu is one breakfast which brings a big smile but unfortunately, I make it rarely as my daughter hate puttu.But at days I make some different breakfast for her and me indulge in this Kerala delicacy.

On seeing fellow bloggers sharing video recipes I also thought of taking videos.Although I have took video recipes but all those with my point & shoot camera with one hand cooking & other shooting  were not so good.But having slr, I decided to try.Actually I bought tripod three months back with an aim to make videos only but never used it.On seeing bloggers friends sharing I gave a try this week. Hope you will watch through it and I strongly recommed some sugestion for it.
