~ Quick Fix: GITS Khaman Dhokla in Microwave!!

Heya!!! Apparently off late I am all about quick fixes, well with the pandemic and work and home and kid etc. I think it’s pretty much justified!

Well, today I am sharing with you a recipe that’s been my quick fix for many many years. It’s how to make GITS ka Khaman Dhokla in the microwave. Yup! As if GITS wasn’t a shortcut enough, I give you steps to make it in the microwave! How about that! So let’s jump right in, shall we?!

Ingredients:

– GITS Khaman Dhokla small packet, one which makes 18 Dhoklas: Water and oil to make the blend per packaging

– 1/2 tablespoon oil

– One and half teaspoon Rai / Mustard Seeds

– Handful of curry leaves / kadi patta

– 1 tablespoon augar

– 1 glass water

– Handful green chilies cut / jalapeños

– Dhaniya / Cilantro for garnish

Method:

– Mix the packet contents per instructions on the packet. Put this is a greased square or rectangle Pyrex bowl or microwave safe dish. Microwave for 6 minutes. Don’t worry if it comes out dry, our water mixture will fix that.

– Now in a small pan, heat the oil and put in the mustard seeds, when they crackle, put in the curry leaves and chilli/jalapeños. Cool on high flame but don’t let the leaves get burned or change color to black.

– Now put the glass of water and sugar and let it boil for 3-4 minutes.

– Switch off the flame and pour this on the microwaved Dhokla, letting it soak. Let it sit for 5 minutes and then once cool, garnish with cilantro, cut into pieces and serve them with chutney or just as is!

Dhokla is ready!!!

Until next time, stay satisfied!
