Puttu, (made of rice powder and grated coconut, steamed in a metal or bamboo holder), taken along with kadala (a curry made of black garbanzo beans chana) and bananas.
Pidiyan, (dumplings made of rice and jaggery).
Idiyappam, (string hoppers - also known as noolputtu and nool-appam), taken with spicy egg curry or tomato curry.
Paal-Appam, (a circular, fluffy, crisp-edged pancake made of rice flour fermented with toddy or wine), taken with chicken stew (mild spiced coconut milk based gravy), or vegetable kurma (a mixed vegetable curry in coconut milk gravy).
