Directions
1. In a bowl, take jowar flour and besan. To this add turmeric powder, coriander powder, salt, green chili paste, sugar, fenugreek leaves and oil. Using your hands mix all the ingredients to combine well.
2. Gradually add water, very little quantity at a time ( just enough required for the dough) and knead the dough.
3. Keep a couple of tablespoons of sesame seeds set aside. Take small portions of the prepared dough and make muthiyas with your hand, dip or roll each one of them on the sesame seeds to coat them with it.
4. Heat oil in a pan for frying at medium temperature. Deep fry the muthiyas till golden brown and drain them on to a paper towel to remove the excess oil.
SERVING
5. Serve the methi muthiyas in the traditional undhiyu or as it is as a snack with Indian tea.
TIPS
If required, you can also add corn flour along with the jowar flour and the besan for extra crunchy muthiyas.
