Lauki Muthia
Lauki Muthia is a famous Gujarati snack recipe. It has a very spicy taste and is loved by both children and adults.
Ingredients:
Method:
To make Lauki Muthia, in a bowl, add 1/2 cup wheat flour
, 1/2 cup gram flour
and 1/2 cup semolina
and grated bottle gourd.
Peel and grate it.
Mix it.
Now add green chili and ginger
paste and
all the dry spices
(salt, red chili powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, cumin, sugar, chili flakes, baking powder, asafoetida) and
mix it. Now add the juice of one lemon.
Add 2 teaspoons of oil and mix well to knead the dough.
Now cover it and let it rest for 15-20 minutes.
The muthiyas need to be steamed, so
add 2 glasses of water to the steamer and heat it.
And grease the sieve with oil.
So that the muthiyas don't stick. Now, take small portions of the mixture, roll them into shapes, and
place them on the sieve.
Now cover with a lid.
Let it cook for 20-25 minutes. After 25 minutes, the muthia is ready.
Turn off the gas and let the muthia cool down. Now cut it into 1-inch pieces.
Now, to fry the muthia, heat oil in a pan and add mustard seeds, sesame seeds, and curry leaves, and let them splutter.
Then add the cut muthia pieces and cook, flipping them occasionally, until crispy.
Now turn off the gas and garnish with coriander leaves.
Serve and enjoy the bottle gourd muthia hot with green chutney and tomato sauce.
