Instructions

Making Chiba Dhokli:

  • Chiba Dhokli is steamed in a different method from the regular dishes. For this, we need a saucepan and a plate having the same diameter as the plate is placed over the saucepan.
  • So grease the plate you are going to use, keep it aside.
  • Take about 2 cups of water in the saucepan and bring to a boil.
  • In a bowl, take the besan, sieve to remove lumps, add the rest of the ingredients.
  • Slowly add water as we need a thick non-dropping consistency.
  • Transfer the batter into the steel plate using a spatula and quickly spread to an even layer.
  • Now simmer the saucepan to low flame, invert the plate to place on the saucepan upside down.
  • The besan layer should face the boiling water.
  • Increase the flame and let the Dhokli cook for 5 minutes. It is done in 5 minutes if your layer is thin, else you may have to keep it for a few more minutes.
  • Switch off the flame and bring down the plate.
  • Let it sit for a few minutes to cool down.

For Tempering:

  • Heat a pan with oil.
  • Add mustard seeds, sesame seeds, and curry leaves, let it crackle.
  • Pour evenly over the Dhokli.
  • Slice the dhokli into smaller pieces, serve with coriander leaves garnished on top.
  • You can serve these steamed snacks with green chutney and tea.
  • You can sprinkle Methia Masala.
