Recipes for Indian Food-Dhokla

INGREDIENTS

1 cup rice, ¼ cup black gram split, ¼ cup yoghurt, 1 ½ warm water, 1 piece of ginger, 3-4 green chillies, 3-4 springs fresh coriander leaves, ½ soda-bi- carbonate ( backing soda), 1 tbsp lemon juice and 2tbsps oil.

METHOD OF PREPARATION
Dry roast the rice and the dal on medium heat for four to five minutes. Cool and grind into a semi-coarse powder.
Put the powder in a bowl. Add yogurt which should be a little sour and to this add warm water. Mix thoroughly so that no lumps are formed and the batter is of pouring consistency.
Add salt and let it ferment for eight to ten hours.

Peel and wash ginger. Remove stems and wash the green chillies. Grind them together into a paste. Clean, wash and finely chop coriander leaves.
Once fermented, mix the ginger-green chilli paste with the batter.
Grease the dhokla platter or a thali. Boil water in the steamer/boiler.
Pour half of the batter in another vessel. In a small bowl, add one-fourth teaspoon soda bi-carbonate, half a teaspoon oil and half teaspoon lemon juice. Add this to the batter and mix well. Repeat this for the remaining batter just before putting it in the steamer.
Pour this onto the greased platter and keep it in the steamer to steam for eight to ten minutes.
Check with a knife. If the knife comes out clean, it is cooked.
Sprinkle some finely chopped coriander leaves and serve hot with coriander and Mint Chutney.
