Irachiputtu In Kozhikodan Style is a traditionally prepared breakfast dish, very popular in Malabar region, where grated coconut is replaced with minced meat masala. In Kerala Cuisine, Puttu is the undisputed king of breakfast and the position has not changed ever since. Puttu with Kadala Curry is the favorite dish with Malayalees. In Malabar regions you will discover Irachiputtu In Kozhikodan Style quite familiar. There is not much of a difference, only thing coconut has been replaced with meat. The spicy meat masala blends well with puttu. You can pair the dish with some chicken or beef curries. The dominance of this exotic dish is unquestionable. I never had a liking towards ‘puttu’ and had an aversion towards all rice based dishes. But Irachiputtu In Kozhikodan Style has stolen my heart. It was at a friend’s place in Kozhikode that I tasted the dish. Ever since I am a great fan of this dish. I don’t mind savoring the dish at any time of the day.

There are so many varieties of ‘Puttu’ these days – like Ragi Puttu, Gothambu Puttu, Kappa Puttu, Chemmeen Puttu, the list goes on.
