Muthia is very well known Gujarati snack.People love to eat as a tea time snack.It is prepared in many differnet ways.. i.e with different vegetables like Spinach Muthia , Spinach Fenugreek leaves muthia , Bottle Gourd Muthia , Cabbage Muthias etc.Muthia is a very easy way to incorporate the green veggies in our diet in a healthy way.Also it taste awesome and much better than normal cooked curries of these veggies.For kids also this is a very good and healthier option to make them eat such veggies.

So lets make today Spinach Steamed Muthia :) :)

Ingredients :-

1 cup Whole wheat flour 
1/2 cup Chickpea flour/gram flour 
3/4 cup Handwo flour (Mix of rice flour , semolina and Chana Dal Flour) or use store brought handwo flour
1/2 cup Rice Flour 
1/2 tsp Turmeric Powder
Spinach 2 cups washed and chopped
¼ tsp Asafoetida
¼ tsp Baking soda 
½ tsp Cumin powder 
1 tsp   Sugar 
1 tsp   Ginger paste
3 tbsp Curd
2 Green chillies chopped finely
1/2 cup Coriander leaves chopped finely
1/2 tsp Red chilly powder 
Salt to taste
1 tsp Oil 
Water to form a dough

For Tadka or tempering

3tsp oil
1 tsp mustard seeda
2tsp sesame seeds
5- Curry leaves
1  whole dry Red Chilly

Procedure :- 

In a bowl mix all the ingredients and make a dough.Water to be added to form a dough only if needed.In a steamer put 4-5 cups of water and make it boil.Grease the tray with oil and pour the batter in it as we do for dhokalas.Or in other way as I did, I used the idli pot to steam the Muthia.Grease your hand with oil and make the muthia in the shape of idli.Grease the idli moulds and keep the muthia in mould.Steam it for 20-25mins.Check it before closing the knob by inserting the toothpick in muthia.If it come out clean its done otherwise steam for sometime more.

Let it cool then cut into pieces of desired shape.In a pan heat oil.Once hot add mustard seeds and let it splutter.Once done add red chilly,curry leaves and sesame seeds.Then add muthias.Mix well and cook for 2-3mins.Garnish with coriander leaves.Serve hot with mint coriander chutney or Sauce of your choice.

Note :- 
1) One can eat steam muthia without tadka also :) :).
2) If you are using storr brought Handwo Flour then don't add baking soda as it will already come in market pack.
