Sorghum Cabbage Muthias Recipe: Steamed Millet Snack with Gujarati Flavours

Muthias are a popular traditional snack known for being light, flavorful, and steamed rather than fried. This Sorghum Cabbage Muthias recipe adds a nutritious millet-based twist to the classic dish by using sorghum (jowar) flour along with fresh cabbage and aromatic spices.

Steamed first and then lightly seasoned, these muthias are soft inside, lightly crisp outside, and ideal for healthy snacking or breakfast.
