Ritu Taneja Mehta For the Dhokla -

In a bowl add besan, ginger, curd, 1tbsp lime juice, 1tbsp sugar, salt, 1 tbsp oil and
mix well. Then add water little by little to make a smooth paste (Paste should not be
very thick nor very watery). Keep aside.
Now grease the microwave safe dish properly with some oil. The dish in which you
are preparing Dhokla should not be very big (try to take a square box which is
approximately 3-4" in height and 6-7" wide), otherwise the Dhokla will not rise well.
Then add the fruit salt and give a quick mix, pour it in the container (don't fill
completely the dish/container).
Immediately microwave it on high power for about 4-5 minutes. Microwaves power
vary hence after 4 mns keep checking the dhokla with a toothpick. When done, take
it out and keep aside for cooling.

For the Tampering -

Take rest of the oil in a pan, as soon as it gets heated up add mustard seeds to it,
after it splitters add green chilies and curry leaves. Fry it for 30 secs add 1 cup of
water and let it boil. As soon as it is boiled add sugar and a pinch of salt and give it a
mix. Now switch of the flame and add lime juice.

Cut the cooled Dhokla into small pieces (or as per your choice). Pour the entire
tampering on to the dhokla, give it a rest for 2-3 minutes and its ready to be served
