Name: Dhokla
Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 10 min
Total time: 20 min
Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients: 1 cup chickpea flour (besan); 1 cup water; 1 tsp ginger paste; 1 piece green chili (finely chopped); 1 tbsp lemon juice; 1 tsp salt; 1 tsp eno fruit salt; 1 tsp mustard seeds; 5 piece curry leaves; 1 tbsp oil; 2 tbsp fresh coriander (for garnish)

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine chickpea flour, water, ginger paste, green chili, lemon juice, and salt. Mix well to form a smooth batter.
Add eno fruit salt to the batter and mix gently. The batter will become frothy.
Grease a steaming tray or plate and pour the batter into it.
Steam the batter for about 10-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
In a small pan, heat oil and add mustard seeds. Once they splutter, add curry leaves and sauté for a few seconds.
Pour the tempering over the steamed dhokla and let it cool.
Cut into squares and garnish with fresh coriander before serving.

Tips

Ensure the steaming tray is greased well to prevent sticking.
Serve with green chutney or sweet chutney for added flavor.
