Muthia

Muthia is an Indian dumpling or a fritter consisting of chickpea flour, turmeric, chili powder, fenugreek, and salt. Sometimes, the combination is additionally bonded together with oil, or sweetened with sugar. Once shaped, muthia can be either fried or steamed, depending on personal preferences. Although this is a Gujarati staple, there are many varieties of muthia, made with spinach, cabbage, or gourds. Whether steamed or fried, muthia is typically garnished with mustard seeds, sesame seeds, and chopped coriander.
