1 tsp chilli powder
1/4 tsp turmeric powder (haldi)
2 tsp sugar

Method :

Combine the cauliflower greens, besan, whole wheat flour, chilli powder, turmeric powder, sugar, oil, coriander and salt in a deep bowl, mix well and knead into a soft dough using enough water.
Divide the dough into 2 equal portions and shape each portion into a cylindrical roll of approximately 150 mm. (6\") in length and 25 mm. (1\") in diameter.
Arrange both the rolls on a greased sieve and steam in a steamer for 10 minutes. Remove and keep aside to cool slightly for 10 minutes.
Cut each roll into 12 mm. (½”) slices and keep aside.
For the tempering, heat the oil in a broad non-stick pan and add the mustard seeds, sesame seeds and asafoetida and sauté on a medium flame for 30 seconds.
Add the muthia pieces, toss gently and cook on a medium flame for 2 minutes, while stirring occasionally.
Serve immediately with green chutney.
