PREPARATION :

Firstly we need to mix the rice and dal in a bowl wash them well and soak them in enough water for around 5-6 hours.


After that u need to grind the soaked dal-rice with little water to a smooth batter.


Keep the batter in a warm place for 7-8 hours/overnight to ferment. 


Not get your steamer ready and grease the plate with little oil in which u would be steaming the Dhokla.


In the fermented batter add the salt, crushed green chillies, grated ginger and the fruit salt give it a good stir.


Now pour some of the batter in the grease plate and place it in the steamer for 10-12 minutes. Then cut them into small pieces. 


Repeat the process until all the batter is used.
