Doodhi na muthiya is classic Gujarati breakfast dish made from a combination of flours, bottle gourd and spices. You can also use left over rice to make these Muthia Dhoklas. Traditionally these muthias are pan fried after they are steamed, but in this recipe, I will only be adding the seasoning on the top to keep the health quotient up for this wholesome breakfast recipe.

Serve the Doodhi Na Muthiya Dhokla as a tea time snack, for breakfast or even as a light dinner along with Green Chutney and Masala Chai.
