Dudhi na Muthiya , Methi Muthiya or rice and methi muthiya is a healthy Gujerati dish which can be served as a snack, breakfast, in a lunchbox or brunch with tea, coffee or chutney, kids might enjoy with milkshake or chaas ( buttermilk ). A perfect spicy snack always satisfies any soul ! This time I used couple more nutritious ingredients, which are Oats and Quinoa. You will need :-
3-4 cup methi ( fenugreek leaves ) cleaned, washed and roughly chopped 1 cup wholemeal flour or whole wheat flour 1 cup oats 1 cup Quinoa 1/2 cup bajri flour ( finger millet flour ) 2-3 tbsp. semolina 2-3 tbsp. gram flour 1 tbsp. rice flour 2 tbsp. oil ( moin ) Pinch soda bi carb salt to taste 3 tbsp. ginger and green chilli paste 2 tbsp. sugar 1 cup sour yogurt 2 tbsp. lemon juice or amchoor powder 1 tsp. ground turmeric 1-2 red chilli powder 1 tsp. ajwain ( carom seeds ) 2 tsp. cumin and coriander powder 1/2 tsp garam masala
You will need for vaghar and garnishing :-
3-4 tbsp. oil 2 tbsp. mustard seeds 1 tbsp. cumin seeds 1/4 tsp. hing 2 sprigs curry patta 3-4 dried red chillies 3-4 tbsp. sesame seeds 2-3 tbsp. desiccated coconut Hand full of fresh chopped coriander
Method :- First lightly roast oats and quinoa for 3-4 minute. Let it cool and grind to a coarse flour. Place rest of the muthiya ingredients in a big bowl. Mix very well to make a dough, using little water. Dough should not be too soft. Apply a little oil on your hands and divide the mixture into 2-3 parts. Then pressing in your fists into cylindrical shapes and place in a steamer. Whichever method you prefer. Insert a knife after 20-30 mins and see that it comes out clean, meaning its cooked. Let it cool a little and slice each roll into thin oval-shaped pieces. For vaghar heat oil in a kadai, add mustard seeds, after they splutter add rest of the ingredients except coconut and coriander. After few seconds add cut muthiya pieces and mix gently and sauté them for few minutes or until they get slightly golden brown. Switch off the heat, garnish it with coconut and coriander. Enjoy with masala tea ( my favourite combination ) or your choice of dip. Thank you for stopping by 🙂
