    I thought rava dhokla to be same as rava idli and did not want to try it out. Today thought of giving it a try (adapted from here) as it is easy and was wanting to post something in blog. It turned out delicious than I expected.

    I may be biased as I love all items prepared with sooji/ rava. Infact loved it more than the instant besan dhokla.

    Vj too loved it, to my surprise. The sugar water we pour along with tadka is really a game changer. I love the ginger and chilli paste we add in the batter along with lemon juice.

    Have used eno for this, you can sure replace it with cooking soda. We ate it as such but it goes well with green chutney, you must have guessed it. I wanted it to be white, but because of my chilli paste mixture, it became a different color than I had in mind.

    Check out my another snack Kothimbir vadi recipe and classic khaman recipe.

    Serve with Green chutney the best. We loved it as such as it was tangy and sweet both at same time.

        First bring to boil before placing it inside. Then Medium flame will be apt.
