Muli Ja Muthia - Radish Dumplings

  1. Take flour, turmeric powder, sugar and salt and mix it well. Now add the wet ingredients plain yogurt, oil, garlic, chilli , ginger paste, and finally the radish and mix it all well into the flour mixture.
  2. Add a little water if you feel it is too dry, because it is like in between a dough and batter in consistency. your hands should be a little messy or wet when you roll them. That is how they should be. Remember, daikon would also release water.
  3. Immediately, roll them with the help of your palms in oblong shape like a log. And, grease the steamer , if you are using bamboo steamer then line them on a greased parchment paper.
  4. Heat some water in the steamer and then place these logs side by side. I use pressure cooker to steam these , but you can steam them your way.Let them steam on high flame for about 15 minutes.
  5. Once they are steamed, remove them from the steamer and you can serve them steamed with some green chutney on side along with tea. I am a little tea bias, but I am sure coffee is also fine.
  6. And, if you do not want to serve them steamed , but rather saute them then cut the logs into disc shaped (check out the pic) heat some oil in shallow pan, once the oil is hot add the mustard seeds, asafoetida, curry leaves and finally sesame seeds, and immediately add the steamed ones into it. Let them get browned or some roast marks and cook them evenly for about 5 to 7 minutes.
  7. Just when they are done remove them on a serving plate. They are really good for brunch or breakfast or even as side dish.
