Grease a cake pan with some cooking spray and pour gently. You can put the lid on the steaming container you're using, but not on the pan that the batter is in. Also, after steaming them, let them sit for 5 minutes before doing the tadka and cutting them.<BR/><BR/>I hope this works for you!TNLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14550939425063803575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36643636.post-53999142035731939442009-02-01T02:40:00.000-03:302009-02-01T02:40:00.000-03:30Hello, I tried out this dhokla recipe but I thin...Hello,<BR/> I tried out this dhokla recipe but I think I did something wrong. I tried this recipe twice, the first time I think the baking soda was old so the dhoklas were very hard. Next time I used almost an entire pouch of eno and I did get a lot of bubbles almost immediately. So I set it aside for just 5 mins instead of 15 mins. Also I used a round steel container without a lid. But the dhoklas kind of fell flat after taking them out of the container. Is it important to use a container with a lid? Maybe I used more eno than required. If you have any inputs to help me make better dhoklas, I would be really grateful. :)Nikitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11862283988732714665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36643636.post-83904665624921139832008-11-03T21:26:00.000-03:302008-11-03T21:26:00.000-03:30Trupti,You have a gift!!

It did cook well but did not rise much at all and was just quite flat. I followed your recipe to the word. What could I do to make it swell nice and fluffy? Do I have to add any yogurt or ferment for a longer while?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36643636.post-53336075662634455612007-06-29T07:47:00.000-02:302007-06-29T07:47:00.000-02:30Hi Anon:I am so sorry your khaman didn't turn out ...Hi Anon:<BR/><BR/>I am so sorry your khaman didn't turn out right.....did you add the soda bicarb in it or baking powder? If the sida bicarb is too old, it won't froth in the batter, try using ENO instead and, yes, I think using a square aluminum pan could have been a reason....use a round,cake pan or a masala dibba the next time, the dhoklas need that much room to fluff up with support at the egdes all around.....and steam on medium high heat for at least 10-15 minutes. This recipe is quite accurate and many have tried it with excellent results, so don't lose hope! Try again :)<BR/><BR/>truptiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36643636.post-91633453648462637882007-06-29T02:14:00.000-02:302007-06-29T02:14:00.000-02:30Hi Trupti, I tried your Khaman recipe today...howe...Hi Trupti, I tried your Khaman recipe today...however, they were no where close to the ones you show on your blog. I followed your recipe pretty much the same way....but my results were disastrous. The khaman was not spongy at all nor really edible :( I wonder if I messed up something. I do have some questions. My batter did not have many bubbles in it after 15 mins....should I have let it rest for some more time for more bubbles to show up? Also, when you steamed the khaman, was it on low or medium heat? I had a square aluminium cake pan (from yester years) that I used....maybe that was the culprit? I should've used steel dibba....may have to buy one. I want to try it again...as yours looks so yummy :) but want to make sure I identify where I fouled up so as not to make the same mistake(s). Any insights you offer may be helpful...thanks for sharing your recipes....all of them are fabulous.

I was pleasently surprised, as I was totally unaware of the link. A lady named Pintoo send me an email and mentioned it. <BR/><BR/>I like your blog as well. The photos are very good and the food looks appetizing. Meri Biwi is always buying these sponge cake type items at the local chat shop which contain cilantro, a peppery spice, and a flavor I can't quite place. They look quite similar to the Dholka in your post. I can never remember the name of the item, but they're good.<BR/><BR/>We do a fair amount of Indian cooking, have several cookbooks, and have attended one class.
