palak methi na muthia recipe | Gujarati palak methi muthia | Indian spinach and fenugreek dumplings | healthy palak methi muthia | with amazing 28 images. palak methi na muthia is a popular Gujarati steamed snack also called Gujarati palak methi muthia. Basic ingredients to make palak methi muthia are palak, methi, ginger green chilli paste, whole wheat flour and lots of Indian spices with a pinch of sugar to sweeten it. For palak methi na muthia the saying goes “steam them, season them, and gobble them up!” you should ideally follow this process in quick succession. Serve the palak methi na muthia soon after steaming—as freshness ensures the greatest satisfaction as far as this dish goes. Muthia's are mostly steamed and very nutritious but, you can even fry them to make a crispy evening snack. They can be eaten as an evening snack with tea or for breakfast. People also make muthia's with cabbage, moong dal, beetroot, dals and etc. We have made our muthia's with palak and methi further known as palak methi na muthia. It does take a while to painstakingly clean and chop the spinach and fenugreek leaves for making the Indian spinach and fenugreek dumplings, but it is definitely worth the while. Tips and notes to make the perfect palak methi na muthia. 1. After 5 minutes, squeeze out all the liquid by pressing the leaves between your palms. The squeezing helps to get rid of the bitterness from the fenugreek leaves. 2. Add semolina to provide the palak methi muthiyas with a nice grainy texture. 3. Both soda and oil help in making palak methi muthiyas softer. Many people even make use of curd (that helps in making soft muthia) to prepare dough but that decreases the shelf life of the palak methi muthia. 4. Keep proper distance between the rolls while placing them so they do not stick to each other on steaming. I serve Indian spinach and fenugreek dumplings for breakfast and as snack and also sometimes as a side dish with lunch or dinner. If you do not have a dhokla steamer, you can steam the spinach fenugreek muthia in a pressure cooker without a whistle, microwave them or in a pan with little water and keep this sieve with muthiya in the pan and steam it by covering the pan with a lid.
