For instant dhokla batter

  • 2 cup rava
  • Salt to taste
  • 3 cup buttermilk or 1 cup curd
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 1.5 tsp eno fruit salt
  • Some red chill powder
  • Some balck pepper powder

For garlic chutney

  • 12-13 garlic cloves
  • 2 tbsp kashmiri red chilli powder
  • 1 tomato

For dhokla tempering

  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 1 tsp mustard seeds
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds
  • Pinch of hing
  • Some curry leaves
  • 2 chopped green chilli

Instructions

For the Dhokla Batter

  • In a mixing bowl, add 2 cups of rava, salt to taste, and 3 cups of buttermilk. Mix well and prepare a medium-thick batter with a ribbon-like pouring consistency.
  • Cover and let the batter rest for 15 minutes.

For the Garlic Chutney

  • In a mixer jar, add 12–15 garlic cloves, 2 tbsp Kashmiri red chilli powder, and 1 tomato. Grind until smooth.
  • Garlic chutney is ready. Keep it aside.

For the Sandwich Dhokla

  • Divide the prepared batter into two bowls with 1 cup of batter in each bowl, and add ½ cup of batter to another bowl.
  • Add 4 tbsp of garlic chutney to the bowl containing ½ cup of batter and mix well. Keep it aside.

For the First Layer

  • Preheat the steamer and grease the dhokla mould with oil.
  • Take 1 cup of plain batter and add ½ tsp Eno fruit salt and 1 tsp lemon juice. Mix well. The batter will become frothy.
  • Immediately pour the batter into the greased mould and steam in the preheated steamer for 5 minutes.

For the Second Layer

  • Take the ½ cup of garlic chutney-mixed batter and add ½ tsp Eno fruit salt and 1 tsp lemon juice. Mix well.
  • Pour the batter over the first dhokla layer and spread it evenly.
  • Steam for another 5 minutes.

For the Third Layer

  • Take 1 cup of plain batter and add ½ tsp Eno fruit salt and 1 tsp lemon juice. Mix well.
  • Pour the batter over the garlic chutney layer and spread it evenly.
  • Steam the dhokla on high flame for 15 minutes, or until cooked through.

For Tempering

  • Once the dhokla is steamed properly, let it cool slightly and then demould it.
  • Cut the dhokla into pieces.
  • Heat 2 tbsp oil in a tadka pan. Add 1 tsp mustard seeds, 1 tsp sesame seeds, a pinch of hing, some curry leaves, and 2 chopped green chillies.
  • Sauté for a few seconds and pour the tempering over the dhokla.
  • Garnish with fresh coriander leaves.

Notes

  • The quantity of curd should be half the quantity of rava.
  • The batter should have a medium-thick, ribbon-like pouring consistency.
  • The garlic chutney should have a thick consistency. Do not add water while grinding it.
  • Eno helps make the dhokla soft and spongy. You can use baking soda instead of Eno.
  • Steam the dhokla on high heat. Do not steam it on low heat.
