Lauki Muthia recipe – Healthy Gujarati snack recipe
Muthia is a Gujarati snack that was introduced to me by my friend and I got addicted to these healthy and delicious steamed dumplings. A few days back when I had a sudden craving for this muthias I told this to my friend and the next day she sent a box full of yummy muthias to my place. The next day, I asked her the recipe and tried it on my own and this came out very awesome. This can be made with many veggies, but I have tasted the bottle gourd muthias and the palak, methi muthias. Sharing the recipe for bottle gourd | lauki muthia now.

Notes
- As bottle gourd leaves excess water do not add much yogurt to make the dough
- While making with palak or methi leaves more yogurt can be used.No need to use water to make a dough.
- Garam masala, red chili powder ginger garlic paste can be added while making the dough.
- The cylindrical dumplings can be microwaved also instead of steaming and I strongly recommend this too.
