Rava dhokla recipe, Sooji dhokla, Instant dhokla recipe

Rava dhokla / Sooji dhokla is a soft, spongy and delicious steamed savory snack/ breakfast that can be easily prepared at home in no time. This dhokla requires no fermentation and just the ingredients need to be mixed, steamed and tempered. Super easy right? These are super soft like idli so whenever I get get bored with this breakfast I prefer to make dhokla as its easy and can be made quickly. Earlier I have posted traditional Instant besan dhokla, Oats dhokla and Idli dhokla so thought to post something new that’s not in the blog so posting this yummy and quick to make dhokla. For this dhokla as well I have used eno fruit salt to get fluffy and airy dhokla but it can be substituted with baking soda as well but personally I like to use eno fruit salt as it gives better texture to the dhokla. So let’s get to the making!
