Recipe Help : Dokhla n Birayani

Hi guys,

 

Can anyone help  me with the recipe on dokhla esp masala dokhla and birayani (veggie).

 

Thanks .

In a bowl add gram flour (besan), Curd and water. Mix well and make a smooth batter. The batter should be of thick consistency. Add salt and set aside for 4 hours covered with a lid. Take the ginger and green chili paste and add to the batter. Also add turmeric powder and mix well. Keep the steamer or cooker ready on gas. Grease a baking dish (it should fit in the steamer or cooker). Now in small bowl take a tsp. of soda bi-carb or eno, 1tsp oil and lemon juice and mix well. Add this to the batter and mix well. Pour the batter into the greased pan and steam for 10-12 minutes or till done. Cool for sometime and cut into big cubes. Heat little oil in a small pan and add mustard seeds and curry leaves allow to splutter. Remove and pour it over dhoklas. Garnish the besan dhokla with coriander and slited green chilies.
• Serve with hari chutney.
