It is a snack or breakfast originated from South India and Sri Lanka and is popular in South India, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, and Singapore. It tastes sweet and is made from rice noodles with coconut and jaggery or unrefined sugar used in India. Instead of jaggery, gur or date palm sugar, or gula Melaka or coconut palm sugar is used as sweetener. In Malaysia and Singapore, there is another version of putu mayam called putu piring in which the rice flour dough is used to form a small cake, instead of noodles, with coconut and gur or jaggery fillings.
