About Muthiya

Muthiya is a traditional Gujarati snack made from a blend of grated vegetables, such as bottle gourd, and flours like whole wheat, chickpea, or millet. Lightly spiced with garlic, ginger, green chilies, and cumin, the dough is shaped into logs and either steamed or pan-fried, yielding a flavorful dish with a tender texture. Muthiya is a staple in Indian cuisine, praised for its versatility and nutritional benefits. Its steamed preparation makes it lower in fat compared to fried snacks, while the use of whole grains and vegetables provides fiber, vitamins, and minerals. However, fried versions may have higher calorie and fat content. A wholesome option for a light meal or snack, Muthiya embodies the balance of taste and health in traditional cooking.
