📝 Ingredients You’ll Need:
- Instant dhokla premix (Agrawal’s 420 Instant Khaman Mix)
- Green chutney
- Green food color (optional)
- Oil
- Water
🥣 Step-by-Step Method:
✅ Prepare the Base Batter:
Start by making a smooth dhokla batter using the premix and water. Mix well to avoid any lumps.
Now, add 1 to 1.5 teaspoons of oil into the batter and mix again.
Pro Tip: Adding oil makes the dhokla softer and creates a perfect porous (jaali-daar) texture.
✅ First Layer – Plain Batter:
Grease a cake mold or steel container with oil.
Fill it only 1/3 with the prepared plain batter—leave room for the next layers.
Place it inside a preheated steamer or a large kadhai with boiling water and a ring stand.
Steam for 3–4 minutes on high flame.
✅ Second Layer – Green Chutney Batter:
While the first layer is steaming, mix the remaining batter with green chutney.
To enhance the color, add a few drops of green food coloring (optional).
Once the first layer is dry to touch, spread this green chutney batter evenly as the second layer.
Steam again for a few more minutes until set.
✅ Final Layer – Fresh Batter Again:
Prepare a small portion of fresh batter using the premix.
Note: Always make batter fresh before steaming. Don’t prepare all at once or it won’t rise properly.
Once the green layer is cooked, spread the final plain layer on top.
Steam again until fully cooked and the top appears dry and fluffy.
🔪 Cool, Cut & Serve:
Let the dhokla cool completely before slicing—this helps keep all three layers intact and beautifully visible.
You can use cookie cutters for fun shapes or simply slice with a sharp knife.
🍽️ Serving Suggestions:
- Serve with green chutney or tomato ketchup
- Top with nylon sev or grated coconut for added crunch
- Perfect for kitty parties, potlucks, and family gatherings
🌟 Bonus Tip:
If you have extra batter and chutney left, steam them in a khaman tray or small bowl for a mini version of this dhokla. Use a small cutter to shape it beautifully—it’ll be a showstopper on any serving plate!
📢 Final Thoughts:
This Sandwich Dhokla is soft, flavorful, and visually appealing—a complete win for any occasion.
