Ingredients

4

1 & half cups Besan

quarter teaspoon Turmeric

1 tablespoon Sugar

Salt as per taste

1 teaspoon Ginger chilli paste

1 piece Lemon

three quarters cup Water

1 tablespoon Fruit salt / eno

2 tbsp Oil

1 teaspoon Mustard seeds

quarter teaspoon Hing

8 pieces Curry leaves

2 pieces Green chillies

three quarters cup Water

Tips

Adjust the level of green chilies to control the spiciness of the dish.

Ensure the besan batter is smooth without any lumps.

Use a well-fitted lid while steaming to prevent water from dripping into the dhokla.

Directions

In a mixing bowl, combine besan, turmeric, sugar, salt, ginger chilli paste, and lemon juice. Mix well.

Gradually add water to form a smooth batter.

Add fruit salt or Eno to the batter and mix gently. The batter will become frothy.

Grease a pan and pour the batter into it. Steam for about 18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

For the tadka, heat oil in a pan. Add mustard seeds, hing, curry leaves, and green chillies. Sauté for a minute.

Add water, sugar, and salt to the pan. Bring it to a boil and then simmer for a few minutes.

Cut the steamed dhokla into pieces and pour the tadka over them.

Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and shev before serving.

Notes

Those with allergies to chickpea flour, garlic, or ginger should avoid this recipe.

People on a low-sodium diet should be mindful of the added salt.
