Ingredients to make Dhokla Rolls:
For the Dhokla:
1 cup sooji
2 tablespoon besan
Salt to taste
½ cup yogurt
½ teaspoon ginger paste
1 teaspoon green chili paste
Oil for greasing
To sprinkle on Dhokla:
Red chilli powder
Podi masala
For special tadka (tempering):
1 tablespoon oil
2 teaspoon mustard seeds
2 teaspoon sesame seeds
1 to 2 green chillies slight length wise (opt)
A few curry leaves
For garnishing:
Freshly chopped coriander leaves
Instructions to make Dhokla Rolls:
For Dhokla:
In a mixing bowl, combine besan, sooji, yogurt, ginger paste,
green chili paste & salt. Mix well and add water as needed to make smooth
batter without any lumps.
Rest the better for minimum 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, grease a thali or a shallow dish with oil. Greasing properly is must
as we need to make rolls from it. Heat water in a steamer or a large pot.
Pour the batter into the greased thali to make thin dhokla. Place it in the
steamer.
Steam the dhokla for about 10 to 12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in
the centre comes out clean.
Once done, let the dhokla cool for a few minutes before removing it from the
thali. Cut it into strips.
Sprinkle red chili powder & podi masala over it when warm.
Carefully roll the strips. Try to make tight rolls. Repeat the same for
remaining.
Place them in a serving plate carefully.
For the tadka (tempering):
In a small pan heat oil and add mustard seeds, sesame
seeds, green chilies and curry leaves.
Allow them to splutter and become aromatic.
Pour the tempering over the dhokla rolls. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves.
You can also sprinkle some podi masala over it if needed.
Serve the delicious dhokla rolls with green chutney, tomato ketchup or tamarind
chutney.
Enjoy these Dhokla Rolls as a delightful snack or starter that's sure to
impress your family and friends.
