Khaman Dhokla

Khaman Dhokla a famous street food in Gujarat, and theses days it's famous in every part of the country. It's made from gram flour (Besan). It's also part of gujarati thali, actually it's has lot many variations with its batter and taste in comparison with the snack.
Dhokla Khaman is often confused with Dhokla which resembles Khaman in size & shape upto a great extent, However Khaman are softer & light yellow in color while Dhokla are generally harder and pale in yellow in color.

After all add water or Curd to make a thick batter, batter               consistency should be like cake batter no lumps at all.                     

Just before steaming add the fruit salt and add little bit of water over it.

When the bubbles  form, mix gently.

Pour the batter immediately into a greased pan or thali and shake thali clockwise to spread the batter in an even layer.

Steam for 7to8 min or till Dhokla are cooked. Once it done keep aside.

For tadka Heat oil in a small pan and add the mustard seeds.

When the seeds starts crackle, add green chili mix well on a medium flame for a second

After few seconds add water, salt, sugar and lime juice and wait until a 2-3 boil.

Once it done switch off the heat. And cut the Khaman into nice square shape.

Now its time to garnishing with Coriander leaves and after that spread tadka over the Khaman.

Before serving leave this for atleast 5to10min, so Khaman will be easily observe the flavor of tadka.
