Khaman dhokla

Khaman dhokla is a steamed snack recipe made with gram flour and spices. khaman dhokla is a popular restaurant dish.

Instant besan dhokla

besan dhokla is a soft & spongy dish without being dry or crumbly. It is slightly sweet and savory

Can I skip the sieving

I would recommend sieving as it helps for lump-free batter

Can I skip eno

Fruit salt (ENO) or baking soda is a must-add leavening agent, makes the batter fluffy, and helps to raise the batter to a beautiful cake while steaming. Eno doesn't have an after taste so I prefer using it. You can also use baking soda but reduce the quantity.

Lemon juice or citric acid

Citric acid works best but it is not a common ingredient in many households so I prefer using lemon juice. If you are using citric acid add ¼ teaspoon to 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
