Putu piring
Singaporean steamed rice flour sweet snack
Putu piring is a round-shaped steamed rice flour kueh (dessert) or sweet snack filled with palm sugar popular in Singapore. Commonly associated with Singaporean cuisine, it is usually made using stainless steel molds with a distinctive flower shape. It is a traditional dessert among the Malay community of the country.
There are two variations of putu piring. There is a thicker and rounder version as well as flatter version with a disc-like shape. Its composition can be compared to the cylindrical putu bambu that is eaten in Indonesia, which are steamed using bamboo tube containers instead and are of a different colour.
