Servings 4 people

Ingredients
  

  • cup Channa dal
  • 1 cup Urad dal
  • 1 cup Moong dal
  • 1 cup Rice
  • 1 tsp Turmeric powder
  • Salt to taste
  • 5 tbsp Green chilli ginger paste

Seasoning

  • 1 tbsp Oil
  • 1 tsp Mustard seeds
  • 4 Green chillies chopped

Garnishing

  • 2-3 tbsp Coriander leaves

Instructions
 

  • Wash and soak the dals and rice for about 5-6 hours or overnight.
  • Drain off the excess water and blend them into a thick batter using a blender. Tip – Use minimum water while blending so that the batter is of a smooth paste consistency.
  • Transfer this batter to a bowl and keep it aside for 6-8 hours for fermentation.
  • After the fermentation process, pour the batter into a bowl, add turmeric powder, salt, green chili-ginger paste, and warm water and whisk the mixture. Use water to adjust the batter to a thick and pouring consistency.
  • Grease a plate with oil and keep the steamer/cooker ready.
  • Pour the batter onto the plate evenly and steam it in the cooker for about 15 minutes. To check, you can prick in the Dhokla using a toothpick or knife and if it comes out clean, the Dhokla is done.
  • Cool it down and cut the dish into cubes.

Seasoning

  • Heat oil in a pan, add mustard seeds and let it crackle.
  • Add the chopped green chilies too.

Garnishing

  • Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot.

Notes

You can modify the recipe with, only Channa Dal or any combination of dals also can be used for the Dhokla batter instead of all the dal varieties.
