Instructions
Making methi muthia recipe:
Take atta, besan, salt, sugar, turmeric, chili powder with ginger paste and green chilies in a bowl. Mix it.
Add 3 tablespoons of oil. Rub it into flour with fingertips.
Then add washed fenugreek leaves and lemon juice.
Again mix it with hands.
Start making dough by adding little water at a time. Sometimes you might not need any water to make dough.
Grease your hand with little oil and make small sized muthias like this.
Heat the oil to deep or shallow fry and meanwhile it is getting ready, shape all the muthias same way.
Now oil is hot, fry them.
Keep moving them around for even browning. Fry till they are crisp and golden brown from all sides.
Then drain the extra oil using slotted spatula.
Remove it to the paper towel lined plate.
Making tomato shaak:
Heat the oil one medium heat. Once hot add mustard seeds, let them pop.
Then add cumin seeds and let them sizzle.
Add ginger paste and green chilies, fry for a minute.
Add curry leaves and chopped tomatoes. Mix it well.
Add turmeric powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, red chili powder, salt and sugar.
Stir it well.
Let cook till some tomatoes get soft, NOT mushy.
Add fried muthia and 1 cup of water.
Mix well and let it simmer.
Cook for 4-5 minutes, muthia will soak up some gravy.
Finely sprinkle some chopped cilantro.
Stir it in and turn off the stove
