Chemmeen Puttu Recipe – Prawns Puttu – ചെമ്മീൻ  പുട്ട്

Chemmeen Puttu Recipe

Chemmeen Puttu Recipe

Chemmeen Puttu is a very tasty dish and can be easily prepared. Steamed rice cake with spicy prawns layer. Puttu is a very familiar food of Kerala. There are many varieties of Puttu. I have added tasty prawns to the puttu to make it more delicious and healthy.

Prawns are not only tasty to eat but they are very healthy too. They are rich in proteins, yet very low on fats and calories. It makes them an ideal food for those who want to loose weight. Prawns are high in good cholesterol and bring down the bad cholesterol.

Prawns  are low in saturated fat. Omega 3 fatty acids in prawn is good for the heart. It prevents the heart from diseases and also circulatory problems. Calcium and vitamin E content in prawns maintains healthy skin, teeth and bones. Proteins in prawns provides body growth and development. Prawns fat content is about 1.75 gm, protein is about 20-24 gm and 100 gm mineral content. Prawns are rich source of Selenium which helps to prevent the growth of cancer cells in the body thus it helps in preventing cancers in the body.
