Notes

  • You can use surti valor or valor papdi instead of desi valor.
  • Green paste enhances the flavor of sabzi.
  • You can use dry garlic cloves instead of green garlic.
  • Add very little water while binding muthiya dough.
  • If the muthiya dough is soft, add 1-2 tbsp of besan to make it perfect.
  • Add muthiya into boiling water so that it holds its shape.
  • Medium-high flame – 2 whistles
  • Kitchen king masala and undhiyu masala enhance the flavor of sabzi; you can use garam masala instead of them.
  • Cover and cook the sabzi for 5-7 minutes so that the gravy flavor absorbs into the muthiya and valor
