Gujarati Khaman Dhokla Recipe  :

• To make dhokla , first of all strain the gram flour into a big bowl with a strainer so that the thick granules will get left behind and you'll get a smooth and fluffy batter. 

• Take a bowl and add salt , 1 lemon juice  , fine chopped ginger, fine chopped green chillies, 1 tbsp powdered sugar and 1 tsp asafoetida with 250 ml water into the bowl. 

• Mix all this ingredients properly and then add little water step by step and make a thick batter of gram flour. Don't add much water directly otherwise it will create lumps in your batter. Add it in installments  and mix it with a spoon properly.

• Your batter should niether too thick nor too thin , check it by dropping some batter with your hands or spoon. If it flows easily and restlessly then your batter is ready.

• Whisk it in one direction with your hand for atleast 10 to 15 minutes. 

• This work of whisking is the only hard work you have to do for making the dhokla. 

• After whisking it continuously for 10 minutes , keep it for rest for at least 15 minutes.

• After 15 minutes of complete rest whisk it once more for 5 minutes so that the protein get activated once again which will make your dhokla fluffy and then add 2 tsp eno (fruit salt) into it and whisk it again thoroughly only for seconds. 

• Now without taking any time add this batter into a container in which you want to make your dhokla. 

• Take a big pan and boil some water (about 200 ml) in it. 

• Make sure that you should be able to put your container into that pan easily.

• Put a stand into the pan. 

• Now put the container over the stand. 

• Put the gas on medium flame and cover the lid gently. 

• Cook it for at least 20 to 25 minutes at medium flame. 

• After 25 minutes put off the gas flame and let it rest for 5 minutes. 

• Don't open the lid for five minutes and it will give you more better result.

For tempering :

• Now your dhokla is ready but it is incomplete without a tempering (tadka) over it. 

• So for making a tempering heat 1 tbsp of oil in a pan. 

• Add mustard seeds and let it crackle. 

• Add some slit green chillies , curry leaves 

• Add 1 cup of water into it. It will produce some sizzling sound. 

• Now after adding water add 3 tsp sugar and 2 tsp of lemon juice. 

• Put off the gas flame and let it get luke warm. 

• Add this luke warm tempering over the dhokla and enjoy your day. 

• Khaman dhokla is ready. Garnish it with some fine chopped fresh coriander leaves and some type of dips and chutneys.
