Notes
Adding eno and citric acid makes the dhokla soft and fluffy.
No eno in your home, use baking powder. Instead of citric acid, add lemon juice.
The batter should be of pouring consistency.
You can use cooker or large cooking vessel to make dhokla.
To check the doneness, insert the tooth prick and check. If it comes out clean, your dhokla is ready.
Follow the same recipe for microwave dhokla.
After adding eno, dont let the batter to sit for long time. Steam it quickly. Then It will turn hard.
You can also make dhokla idly by steaming the same batter in idly plate.
