How to make it

To make dhokla, start by taking semolina (suji) in a bowl, now add a cup of curd, salt as per taste, and one-third of water to it. Mix this batter thoroughly until it gives a thick consistency. Make sure there are no lumps in the batter. Cover this mixture and keep it aside for 20 minutes.

After 20 minutes, take the mixture, add baking soda to it, and give the batter a good mix. Now grease a container with some oil, and transfer the semolina batter into it. Take a vessel, and pour 1-2 glasses of water into it. Place a stand into the vessel. Now place the container with the batter on the stand inside the vessel. Now cover the vessel and cook the Dhokla on high flame for 10 minutes.

After 10 minutes, remove the lid and check if it’s cooked, with the help of a knife. If the Dhokla is cooked then turn off the gas and carefully take out the container placed inside the vessel. Let it cool down. Once it’s cool, take out the dhokla by tapping the base of the container. Now cut it into small pieces.

Now for tadka, take some oil in the tadka pan and let it heat. Once the oil is hot, put some mustard and cumin seeds into it. Fry them until it splutters. After this add some sesame seeds, green chillies, and curry leaves and fry them for a few seconds and then turn off the gas. Now pour the prepared tadka on the dhoklas and then garnish them with coriander leaves. Your flavorful Semolina Dhokla is ready. It can be served with green chutney.
