The color of dhokla can range from cream to light yellow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many types of Dhokla &ndash; Sooji dhokla, Nylon Dhokla, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/quinoa-oats-and-lentil-dosa\/\">Quinoa Dhokla<\/a>, Khaman Dhokla, Corn dhokla, Khatta dhokla, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/khatta-dhokla-handvo-flour\/\">white dhokla<\/a>, Instant Dhokla, rasia dhokla, Mixed Dal Dhokla Etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But out of all, Khaman is our families&rsquo; favorite and go to Indian Snack recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"about-khaman-dhokla\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\" >About Khaman Dhokla<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Khaman Dhokla is a Vegetarian steamed savory snack recipe that originates from the Indian State of Gujarat. It is made with a batter of besan and a leavening agent. The texture is very soft, fluffy, and mouth melting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The batter is steamed to get a soft cake and then topped with a tempering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The traditional method of dhokla requires several hours. You need to soak the chana dal, then grind it, and then let the batter ferment for several hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But this is an Instant khaman dhokla recipe. The result is extremely spongy and melts in the mouth dhokla.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get the market-style juicy dhokla, the secret ingredients are water and sugar added in tempering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"why-you-will-make-this-recipe\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\" >Why you will make this recipe?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Convenient to make when your kids come home hungry from school or guests coming over.<\/li><li>A perfect party appetizer idea.<\/li><li>Naturally vegan and can be made gluten-free skipping the semolina.<\/li><li>Kids and elders all enjoy this delicious snack.<\/li><li>So soft, spongy, moist, easy, and simple.<\/li><li>I would say, Making khaman dhokla at home is the easiest dish you will ever make.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"ingredients-required\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\" >Ingredients required<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This Gujarati besan dhokla recipe is made with simple pantry ingredients, and here&rsquo;s what you&rsquo;ll need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Besan (Gram flour<\/strong>) &ndash;The main ingredient and base of this recipe are Besan. Make sure you use the fine and good quality Besan. I have tried many besan after coming to the US. Out of all brands, I love Laxmi and Nirav Brand besan. Dhokla comes out perfect every single time with the besan brand. I would highly recommend you guys to use Laxmi or Nirav Brand besan for making Dhokla if you are in the USA. (This is not sponsored post. I am sharing my personal experience)<\/li><li><strong>Sooji \/Semolina<\/strong> &ndash; added for texture.<\/li><li><strong>Sugar<\/strong> &ndash; A must ingredient to balance out the spicy and sour flavor.<\/li><li><strong>Ginger and green chilies<\/strong> &ndash; added for extra spice and flavor. But feel free to leave that out if you are making it for kids or not a spice lover.<\/li><li><strong>Eno (fruit salt) + Citric acid<\/strong> &ndash; If you want to make market-style dhoklas, these 2 ingredients are a must-have for this recipe. Make sure to use flavorless ENO. Both are easily available in Indian store. To make the khaman dhokla without Eno, you can use \u00bd teaspoon baking soda with ENO.<\/li><li><strong>Oil<\/strong> &ndash; You will need oil for the batter and for tempering the dhokla.<\/li><li><strong>Other spices<\/strong> &ndash; Salt and turmeric powder<\/li><li><strong>Tempering<\/strong> &ndash; on top of oil, you will also need mustard seeds, cumin seeds, hing, curry leaves, green chili, sesame seeds, water, and sugar for the tempering.<\/li><li><strong>Garnishing<\/strong> &ndash; Cilantro and grated coconut<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Khaman-Dhokla-4.jpg\" alt=\"Pre measured ingredients for khaman\" class=\"wp-image-17272\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Khaman-Dhokla-4.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Khaman-Dhokla-4-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Khaman-Dhokla-4-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Khaman-Dhokla-4-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Khaman-Dhokla-4-150x100.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.cookingcarnival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Khaman-Dhokla-4.jpg\"><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"step-by-step-process\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\" >Step by step process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Make the dhokla batter<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sieve Gram flour (Besan) in a big mixing bowl at least once.

It should be easy to pour consistency (not too thick, not too thin) batter. (image 5)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add oil and whisk the batter well for about 3 to 4 minutes. This is another really important step.

Thicker batter will make your dhokla dense and a thinner batter will make it flat. The batter should be thick enough that it coats the back of a spoon, but also flows freely.<\/li><li>The amount of water to flour ratio varies with the brand of flour used, its texture (fine or coarse), and weather conditions. So after making the thick batter, add water in 1 tablespoon increments to get the batter of the right consistency.<\/li><li>Always add fresh Eno \/ Fruit salt if you are using the packet ones. The open pack may result in flat dhoklas. If using bottled one, make sure to close it properly and store it in the proper place (as suggested on the backside of the bottle or packet) after each use.<\/li><li>A very important trick to get the fluffy dhokla is to beat the batter well. The more you beat the more you get the air in the batter, resulting in soft, spongy, and airy khaman dhokla.<\/li><li>Always add ENO or Baking soda after beating the batter.<\/li><li>Make sure that the steamer is properly heated and the water should be boiling before placing the dhokla batter plates. Otherwise, dhokla won&rsquo;t puff nicely may take more time to cook and you won&rsquo;t get spongy dhokla.<\/li><li>After adding the Eno, Just mix the batter with a light hand once or twice. Don&rsquo;t over mix the batter.<\/li><li>Don&rsquo;t let the batter sit for a long time after adding the eno. Steam the dhokla batter right away.<\/li><li>Don&rsquo;t open the steamer for the first 10 minutes.<\/li><li>Keep the dhokla inside the steamer after switching off the flame for about 10 minutes. Then take out the bowl and cool down a little bit, around 5 minutes, before cutting it. De-mold it and cut the pieces gently.<\/li><li>The tempering should be warm while pouring on the dhokla.<\/li><li>Make sure the dhokla is also warm while adding the tempering.<\/li><li>Always pour Tadka after cutting dhokla. That way dhokla will absorb all the tadka and it will be moist.<\/li><li>The trick to getting the market-style moist dhokla is to add sugar and water in tempering\/tadka. So do not skip it.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1629936959178\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What if I want to steam dhokla in two batches? Forgiven amount of ingredients.<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">If you are going to steam (Forgiven amount of batter) the batter in 2 batches, the steaming time may vary.<br>Steam it for 10 minutes, Insert a toothpick or knife to check it is done or not. If a toothpick or knife comes out clean it is done. <br><strong>Note<\/strong> &ndash; Divide the eno quantity into 2 batches.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1629937079860\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What to do if you don&rsquo;t have a Dhokla steamer?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Don&rsquo;t feel left out if you don&rsquo;t have a dhokla steamer. You can still make it and get the same results. Below are different ways of making dhokla without a traditional steamer.<br><strong>In a pressure cooker<\/strong><br>Take 2 glasses of water into a 3 or 5-liter pressure cooker, boil the water for 5 minutes, place a small stand, place greased the plates filled with dhokla batter, close it and steam it for 15 minutes. Open the lid and insert the toothpick or knife to check if it&rsquo;s done.<br><strong>In big vessel<br><\/strong>Take a deep broad vessel (The plate should be smaller than the vessel), add 2 glasses of water, place dhokla batter thali, cover the vessel, and steam for 15 minutes over medium heat.<br><strong>In Instant Pot<br><\/strong>Add 2 cups of water in the inner pot of the IP, Place the trivet, Turn IP on saute mode, let the water comes to a boil, place the greased pan filled with batter, cover the IP with the lid, lock it, set Instant Pot to Steam mode, with an external timer for 20 mins. <br><strong>Note: Timer function does not work with Steam\/Venting, so an external timer is needed<\/strong><br>Once the timer goes off, Press Cancel and open the Instant Pot after 5 minutes<br>Carefully take out the dhokla bowl. Let it cool down for 5 minutes, cut into desired sized pieces, pour warm tempering, garnish and viola&hellip;. Khaman dhokla in Instant Pot is ready.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1629937269287\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can we make Khaman dhokla without Eno?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes, you can make Dhokla without Eno. Substitute it with \u00bd teaspoon Baking soda. But I highly recommend using Eno to get the best result.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1629937284572\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can citric acid be substituted with any other ingredients?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes, you can substitute citric acid with 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Though citric works the best and gives great results.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1629937298134\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Why is my dhokla not spongy?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The sponginess and light texture in a khaman dhokla comes from the reaction of eno with citric acid releasing carbon dioxide. This reaction creates a fizzy bubbly mixture that helps the batter to rise. So if you use fewer leavening agents (eno, baking soda) or if they are not fresh or active, your khaman won&rsquo;t be spongy.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1629937310647\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Why did my dhokla turn orange or red?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Turmeric powder added in dhokla batter reacts with eno or baking soda to give orange or red-colored spots.

Khaman dhokla in Instant Pot is ready.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>Other important notes and tips<\/strong><\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>Sieve Besan at least once before making dhokla batter to get the airy dhokla.<\/li>\n<li>The consistency of the batter is the key to make soft and spongy dhokla. Thicker batter will make your dhokla dense and a thinner batter will make it flat. The batter should be thick enough that it coats the back of a spoon, but also flows freely.<\/li>\n<li>The amount of water to flour ratio varies with the brand of flour used, its texture (fine or coarse), and weather conditions. So after making the thick batter, add water in 1 tablespoon increments to get the batter of the right consistency.<\/li>\n<li>Always add fresh Eno \/ Fruit salt if you are using the packet ones. The open pack may result in flat dhoklas. If using bottled one, make sure to close it properly and store it in the proper place (as suggested on the backside of the bottle or packet) after each use.<\/li>\n<li>A very important trick to get the fluffy dhokla is to beat the batter well. The more you beat the more you get the air in the batter, resulting in soft, spongy, and airy khaman dhokla.<\/li>\n<li>Always add ENO or Baking soda after beating the batter.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure that the steamer is properly heated and the water should be boiling before placing the dhokla batter plates. Otherwise, dhokla won&rsquo;t puff nicely may take more time to cook and you won&rsquo;t get spongy dhokla.<\/li>\n<li>After adding the Eno, Just mix the batter with a light hand once or twice. Don&rsquo;t over mix the batter.<\/li>\n<li>Don&rsquo;t let the batter sit for a long time after adding the eno. Steam the dhokla batter right away.<\/li>\n<li>Don&rsquo;t open the steamer for the first 10 minutes.<\/li>\n<li>Keep the dhokla inside the steamer after switching off the flame for about 10 minutes. Then take out the bowl and cool down a little bit, around 5 minutes, before cutting it. De-mold it and cut the pieces gently.<\/li>\n<li>The tempering should be warm while pouring on the dhokla.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure the dhokla is also warm while adding the tempering.<\/li>\n<li>Always pour Tadka after cutting dhokla. That way dhokla will absorb all the tadka and it will be moist.<\/li>\n<li>The trick to getting the market-style moist dhokla is to add sugar and water in tempering\/tadka. So do not skip it.<\/li>\n<li>You may use \u00bd teaspoon baking soda instead of ENO. But I highly recommend using Eno to get the best result.<\/li>\n<li>You can substitute citric acid with 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Though citric works the best and gives great results.<\/li>\n<li>This recipe is updated with new images and video, originally published in 2015.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n<h3
