Method for Suji Dhokla Recipe
- In a mixing bowl, combine suji, water, curd, salt and sugar. Mix well to form a smooth batter. Let it rest for 10 minutes. Add Eno fruit salt along with 1 tsp water to the batter just before steaming and mix gently. The batter will become airy and light.
- Grease a square tin or steaming tray or thali with oil. Pour the batter into the tin and spread it evenly. Steam for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Heat oil in a small pan, add mustard seeds, and let them splutter. Add curry leaves, sesame seeds, and green chilies, then sauté for a few seconds. Next, add water, sugar, salt, and lemon juice, stirring well to ensure the flavors are absorbed. Pour this tempering over the steamed dhokla.
- Let the dhokla cool slightly, then cut it into squares. Garnish with coriander leaves and sprinkle with Kashmiri red chili powder.
- Serve with green chutney.
