Serves: 4

Ingredients:
3 cups shredded Dudhi (Opo), with water
Salt, to taste
Fada (Indian Lentil) - 1/4 cup
Oil (1 tsp)
Muthiya No Lot (Muthiya Flour) 1 3/4 cup approximately

Red Chili Powder (Laal Marchu)
Asofteida (Hing)

Preparation:
1. Mix the above ingredients. Add enough Muthiya Flour so you achieve desired consistency which is a soft/sticky dough that you can manipulate into smaller balls.
2. Prepare the steam cooker: spray oil on the tray you plan on putting into your steam cooker.
3. Create smaller balls from the dough and place into the tray.
4. Steam for approximately 20-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
5. You can eat them this way with yogurt, your favorite "Athanu" or "Chas."
6. Optional: Tempering - Warm oil and add Mustard Seeds, Asafetida and chopped Garlic in a large pan. Once the mustard seeds pop, add the muthiya inside and mix completely. Enjoy!
