Making dudhi muthiya

  • Take out the skin of the lauki and cut it into small pieces. With help of a knife cut out the white middle part of the lauki.
  • Take these pieces into a grinder and make a paste. With help of both hands squeeze out as much possible water from the lauki paste.
  • In the same way, make onion paste in a grinder and squeeze out water.
  • Then in a bowl mix wheat flour, besan, rava, turmeric powder, hing, cumin seeds, fennel seeds, salt, sugar, and baking soda. g
  • Then add ginger paste, green chili paste, coriander leaves, lemon juice, oil, lauki, and onion paste. Mix well and knead it into a soft dough. Use water if needed.
  • Prepare steamer. Add about 3 cups of water and let it come to boil
  • Then grease the steamer tray with oil.
  • Apply some oil on your palms, take a small portion of the dough and shape it into a cylindrical roll. Arrange on a greased tray.
  • Steam it for 20-25 minutes.
  • Let it cool for 5 minutes, and remove it from the cutting board. then cut into half-inch slices.

Making tempering

  • Heat the oil in a pan on medium for tempering. Once hot add mustard seeds, sesame seeds, and a few curry leaves. Let them splutter.
  • Then add sliced muthia. Mix gently so they do not break and sauté till you get little brown and slightly crispy.
  • Turn off the heat.

Notes

  • Squeeze out as much possible water from the bottle gourd.
  • Rava (semolina) absorbs water for the muthia dough and helps to give shape to muthia.
  • If the dough is hard and does not bind properly then add little water to make a perfect soft dough.
