Putli mandi, is a Filipino dessert steamed rice cake originating from the Tausug and Yakan people of Sulu. It is made from glutinous rice dough rolled into balls and filled with sweetened coconut strips . It traditionally uses pulut glutinous rice which gives it a natural deep purple color, but it is also commonly dyed in modern versions. It is sprinkled with fresh grated coconut before serving. The name comes from Tausug putli and mandi .
Putlimandi is similar to pichi-pichi but differs in that pichi-pichi does not normally have fillings.
