Make a paste by crushing in a mortar and pestle or grating ginger, garlic, and chili.
In a large bowl, combine dudhi, ginger, chili, salt, turmeric, jaggery, lemon juice, hing (asafoetida), and oil. Mix well. Let sit for 5 minutes. The dudhi will release water as it rests.

Grease a steamer tray. Divide the dough into 4 parts. Form logs with a 1 1/2 inch diameter with each part and set each log down the steamer tray.
Steam the muthiya for 20-25 minutes. The muthiya are cooked when a knife can be inserted and comes out clean.
Allow the muthiya to cool for 10 minutes. Then cut into 1/2 inch slices.

Make a vaghar by heating oil in a small pan. Add mustard seeds, sesame seeds, fenugreek, curry leaves, and garlic.
Add the muthiya to the vaghar. Cook until golden, flipping halfway to cook both sides.
