Instant Indian Dhokla Recipe - A Wholesome Tiffin Box Treat!

Ingredients:

- 1 cup gram flour (besan)

- 1 tablespoon semolina (rava)

- 1 cup plain yogurt (dahi)

- 1/2 cup water

- 1 tablespoon ginger-green chili paste

- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder

- 1 teaspoon fruit salt (ENO)

- 1 teaspoon baking powder

- Salt to taste

- 1 tablespoon oil

- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds

- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds

- Fresh curry leaves

- 1-2 green chilies, slit

- Chopped coriander leaves for garnishing

- Grated coconut for garnishing (optional)

Healthy Tips:

1. Use Whole Ingredients: Opt for whole gram flour and semolina to boost fiber content.

2. Healthy Yogurt Choice: Use low-fat or Greek yogurt to reduce calories and increase protein.

3. Add More Veggies: Incorporate finely grated vegetables like carrots or grated beetroot for additional nutrients.

4. Steaming Instead of Frying: Dhoklas are steamed, making them a healthier alternative to fried snacks.

5. Moderate the Salt: Use sea salt or Himalayan pink salt for better mineral content.

Instructions:

1. In a bowl, mix the gram flour, semolina, yogurt, water, ginger-green chili paste, turmeric powder, and salt to form a smooth batter. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes.

2. Before steaming, add fruit salt (ENO) and baking powder to the batter and mix well.

3. Grease a plate or thali with oil and pour the batter into it.

4. Steam the batter in a steamer for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

5. In a small pan, heat the oil and add mustard seeds. Let them splutter, then add sesame seeds, curry leaves, and slit green chilies. Sauté for a minute.

6. Pour the tempering over the steamed dhokla and garnish with chopped coriander leaves and grated coconut, if desired.

7. Cut the dhokla into squares or diamond shapes.

8. Serve warm or cool and pack in the tiffin box.
