Inside Mammootty’s clean diet: Oats puttu, spicy fish curries & zero cheat days
Amidst health rumors, it’s a known fact that Mammootty’s age-defying looks and incredible energy aren't just thanks to good genes ?it’s his disciplined eating habits that set him apart. At the heart of this commitment is a carefully curated diet that prioritizes clean, nutritious meals with no room for excess. From oats-based puttu to coconut-infused fish curries, every dish is designed to fuel his demanding routine.
According to On Manorama, personal chef Leneesh, who’s been with the actor for over a decade, ensures each meal aligns with Mammootty’s strict health goals.
No Rice, No Frying
Mammootty completely avoids rice for lunch and prefers oat-based puttu paired with coconut-based fish curry. He skips fried items entirely and sticks to mildly spiced dishes that are both flavorful and easy on the stomach.
Fish Lover with a Twist
While he loves fish, Mammootty opts for specific varieties like mullets, pearl spots, and anchovies ?always cooked the healthy way. Anchovy curry with coconut and long beans stir-fry are among his top choices.
Light Dinners and Mushroom Soup Ritual
Dinner is typically light ?wheat or oats dosas (never more than three), paired with mildly spicy chicken curry and chutney. He ends his meal with a comforting bowl of hot mushroom soup.
No Snacking, Just Black Tea & Discipline
No evening snacks or unnecessary indulgences ?just black tea a few times a day during shoots. Even during festive seasons, Mammootty eats only in moderation, proving that his willpower is as legendary as his career.
