Dhokla is very famous dish of Gujarat. In old days Dhokla was prepared with Either Gram dal Flour (Besan) or Rava .. But now a days as time changed , varieties of Dhokla has been introduced.
I made these dhoklas using Oats and Fresh coriander..
This is very soft , healthy, low calorie, and very filling. You can try variation too. One can add Chopped Spinach , grated carrot etc.
Why Oats are healthy.. lets see some basic facts and benefits of OATS
- Oats are loaded in dietary fiber (containing more than any other grain) and have a range of healthy cholesterol-lowering properties.
- The possible health benefits of oats include: Lowering Risk of Heart Dieseses, reducing the risk of coronary artery disease, lowering levels of cholesterol, and reducing one’s risk of colorectal cancer.
So lets see the procedure:
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 cup Quaker Oats
- 1/2 cup Rava
- 1/4 cup Fresh Curd
- 4 tsp Chopped Fresh Coriander
- Salt
- 1 tsp Chilli Ginger Paste
- 1 tsp Fruit Salt
To Temper
- 1 tsp Oil
- 1 tsp Mustard Seeds
- 1 tsp Cumin Seeds
- 1 tsp Sesame Seeds
- Few Curry Leaves
- 2 Slit Green Chillies
- 1/2 tsp Hing
METHOD
In a Pan dry roast Oats till it get crispy. Allow it to cool bit. Grind it to make Powder.
In a bowl add Powdered Oats, Rava, Curd, Chilli Ginger Paste . Add some water too to make batter. Mix well and keep aside for 15 mins.
In time make your steamer and a greased plate ( in which we will steam Dhokla ) Ready.
Add chopped coriander , fruit salt and 2 tsp water to batter. Mix very well. Immediately pour on HOT greased plate. Cover the lid and cook for 10-12 mins or till Dhoklas are ready. Allow it to cool for 5 mins . Cut into Diamond or square shape.
To temper, in a small kadai take oil. When hot add Mustard seeds, cumin seeds, sesame seeds, curry leaves, green chillis and hing. Spread nicely on dhoklas.
Serve hot..

Hi Ruchi, seems mouth watering. What if the covering lid forms water droplets.

Thank you Supriya. Keep a heavy weight on lid and flame should be full. Water droplets won’t fall on food.

Hey hi Dimple, as far as my knowledge goes I feel roasted is better. You can try with small batch. Hope it won’t turn soggy..
