Spongy Dhokla

One of my favorite snack Dhokla.... Every time I go to Gangotree, this is a sure to order item... Though my hubby doesn't like this yellow spongy treat, he will definitely buy for me... Here in Qatar where will i find Dhokla at shop ? Its very hard to get most of the delicious Indian items/ snacks.... So thought why not try it out at home... But i didn't have the patience to grind the dough and ferment it overnight... So googled this instant Dhokla recipe... Tried at home and it was a real success... And here it is....


 
Ingredients:

1 cup of Besan flour (Channa dhal flour)
1/3 cup of sooji/rava
1/2 spn salt
3 spn sugar
1/2 spn citric acid
1 spn ginger chilli paste
1 spn Eno fruit salt
1 cup water

For Seasoning

Mustard - 1 tsp
Slit Green Chilli - 2-3
Corriader leaves (Cilantro) - 2-3 tsp
Oil - 2 tsp

How to make:

1. Mix all the ingredients except the ENO in a bowl... Mix nicely without any lumps. It should be in batter consistency.

2. Now add the eno fruit salt and add 1 spn of water.... The moment u add water, so much of froth will come. U will have to mix very fast now and blend the eno....

3. Grease a square or round vessel and pour this wet batter.

4. Now steam this for 10-15 mins.... Keep it in steam only after the water starts boiling....

5. Once its cooked, u can sprinkle the seasoning with mustard seeds, green chilli, and corriander leaves.... u can use little coconut also.... it will be very tasty. You can sprinkle some sugar water if you like it little sweet....

6. Now what, just serve it with mint chutney.... Enjoy the super spongy instant dhokla.
