News India Live, Digital Desk: Be it morning breakfast or evening tea, if you get something spicy and crunchy then the day is made. Gujarati cuisine itself is unique, and when it comes to Muthiya, it is natural for the mouth to water. Muthia is not only delicious in taste, but it is also considered very beneficial for health because it is prepared by steaming. Today we will tell you how you can prepare market-like crispy and soft Gujarati muthia at home. Ingredients required to make muthia: To make a perfect muthia, you will need some basic things. It mainly requires grated bottle gourd, gram flour, wheat flour, semolina, ginger-chilli paste, finely chopped coriander, turmeric, red chilli powder, asafoetida, sesame, a little oil and salt as per taste. You can also use some sugar and lemon juice to give muthiya a light sweet and sour taste. Step-by-step method of preparation: First of all, take grated bottle gourd in a big vessel and drain out its excess water. Now add gram flour, flour and semolina to it. After this, add all the spices, oil and a little curd and knead a soft dough. Keep in mind that the dough should not be too hard. Now apply some oil on your hands and prepare cylindrical rolls from this mixture. Place these rolls in a steamer and steam them for about 20 to 25 minutes. When muthia is cooked, let it cool and cut it into small pieces. Tadka will add flavor to muthia. To give a real Gujarati twist to muthia, its tadka is most important. Heat some oil in a pan and add mustard seeds, white sesame seeds, curry leaves and chopped green chillies. When the mustard seeds start crackling, add chopped muthia to it. Fry it on low flame until the outer layer becomes golden and crispy. Finally, garnish with fresh coriander and serve with hot green chutney or tea. It is also best from health point of view. The best thing about Muthia is that it is steamed instead of fried, due to which the amount of oil in it is very less. Due to the mixture of bottle gourd and green vegetables, it is rich in fiber, which is considered good for digestion. If you are thinking of losing weight, this can be a great snack option for you.
