Notes

  • Cooking time may vary depending upon the microwave voltage. 
  • If the dhokla is not ready in 1 minute and 30 seconds then keep incrementing it 10-10 seconds. 
  • If you have time, you can keep the batter for resting for about 5-10 minutes or you can make it right away.
  • Instead of curd, you can also use buttermilk.
  • Do not make the batter so thick or so thin, it has to have a proper proportion.
  • You can check if the dhokla is cooked properly or not using a toothpick. If the stick comes out clean, then it is cooked perfectly.

This recipe is made in a mug so it is a single portion, but you can also make them in a larger quantity in a pressure cooker or in a dhokla vessel.

You can also add things like coriander leaves into it or you can add any type of veggies like carrot julienne, beetroot julienne or Bottle gourd julienne known as “Lauki or doodhi”, boiled Broad Beans, boiled corns, boiled Green Peas, Green Onion, Pumpkin, boiled potato julienne, Spinach, Mint, Mushroom, sprouts.

This is a good idea to make children eat a lot more veggies with a tastier and healthier option.
