Instructions

  1. Prepare a steamer filled with water and grease the dhokla plates. Set them aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ragi flour, semolina, yogurt, and a pinch of salt. Gradually add water, a little at a time, to create a thick batter (about 1 to 1 ½ cups of water).
  3. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in the Enos fruit salt (or baking powder) and pour the batter into the greased dhokla plates.
  5. Preheat the steamer with water, then steam the dhokla on high heat for about 10 minutes, or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Once steamed, remove the dhokla from the steamer and let it rest for 5 minutes.
  7. In a small pan, heat oil and add the mustard seeds, sesame seeds, and curry leaves. Let them crackle, then turn off the heat.
  8. Pour the seasoning over the dhokla, then cut them into squares or diamond shapes.
  9. Serve the Instant Ragi Rava Dhokla with green chutney and idli milagai podi for a healthy, high-protein Indian breakfast or a nutritious snack.
