  • ¼ teaspoon Mustard seeds
  • ⅛ teaspoon Asafoetida Powder

Instructions

Prep:

  • Mix all the ingredients to soak in a big bowl as the batter is going to ferment and rise and let it stand for at least 6 hours.

To make the Dhokla Batter:

  • Grind all the ingredients under the to grind label to a smooth paste. I used a little of the batter in place of water.
  • Mix well all the ingredients except the Eno’s fruit salt.

Steaming the Dhokla:

  • Get your pressure cooker heated with enough water to steam the batter for 20 minutes.
  • Put the 2 teaspoon oil in the mould, add the Eno, and mix with your fingers until the Eno is well mixed with the oil. Grease the sides of the mould also.
  • Pour the batter in the mould and continue mixing till the Eno is well mixed in the entire batter.
  • Transfer the mould to the cooker and steam (without the whistle) for 20 minutes.

Making the Tempering:

  • Heat oil in a small wok. Add and splutter the mustard seeds, add asafoetida and sesame seeds. Switch off the flame.
  • Serve topped with coriander leaves and tempering.
