Traditionally made with wheat flour, besan, and grated veggies, Muthia gets a protein-packed upgrade with tofu, making this healthy Gujarati snack even more filling and delicious! If you love muthia, then you'll love this variation. Even if you are new to muthia and want to try something different, try making this, you'll thank us later. 😄
You can also use in millet flours like bajra, and add your choice of grated veggies like bottle gourd (lauki), finely chopped palak, or methi as per your choice.
Tofu makes this traditional snack protein-rich and extra filling, and yes, no compromise in taste and flavour!! Win-win 🙌
