Rice Dhokla

I adapted this recipe from Anupama. This Dhokla little bit tastes like Idli but little bit sour than idli. As I did not make any changes I am giving recipe as it is.

Ingredients:

• Rice: 1 Cup
• Urad Dal: 1/4 Cup
• Sour Curd: 1 Cup
• Coarsely Ground Paper: As per Taste
• Salt To Taste
• Sugar To Taste
• Eno Fruit Salt : 1 tsp

For Tempering:

• Oil: 3 tbsp
• Mustard Seeds: 2 tsp
• Fresh Curry Leaves: 7-8
• Small Pinch of Turmeric Powder

Procedure:

1. Soak the rice and dal together for atleast 4-5 hours. After 4-5 hours grind the rice and dal to a fine paste. Leave this mixture for another 4-5 hours in a warm place. It does not need to ferment like the idli batter.
2. After 4-5 hours add curd, salt, sugar and pepper to the batter, and mix well. Add just enough water to get a smooth batter .
3. Oil a thali or dhokla stand . Add Eno Fruit salt to the batter . Mix well and immediately pour the batter into the Thali or Dhokla Mold.
4. Steam for 8 to 10 mins. Then let it cool for a while.
5. Prepare a tempering by adding mustard seeds and curry leaves to hot oil and spoon this over each piece of dhokla .
6. You can eat this dhokla with mint chutney or tamarind chutney anytime of the day.
