- add ¼ cup water and let it come to boil(this is optional,however it will help the dhokla to be moist)
- Add tempering on the dhokla pieces, serve immediately.
- If serving at a later point in time, add the tempering at that time.
Note: You can add 2-3 teaspoon of sugar syrup and some lemon juice before serving if you like it a little sweet and tangy
Notes
You may choose to make multiple layers, if you do not add chutney in between the layers then they will stick more firmly.
We have used twice the besan (1 cup) than sooji(½ cup) as the besan dhokla will not rise that much as the sooji dhokla with ½ cup.
