Sprouts Dhokla My Food Story

on Oct 22, 2024 Don’t be fooled by the simple, healthy ingredients, this Sprouts Dhokla tastes incredible! It has the same soft and spongy texture of the regular yellow dhokla, but this one is loaded with so much flavor! And the best part? It’s super healthy and comes together really quickly – no fermentation required! Plus, that vibrant green color, coupled with a little creative plating can make this moong dhokla really stand out on the Diwali food table ✨ Finish with a tempering for loads of flavor and serve with tomato ketchup or coriander chutney for a Diwali appetiser no one would be able to stop eating!

Richa’s Top Tips

I have used packaged sprouted moong (mung beans) easily available both online and in stores. You could even sprout yours at home from scratch. You might find this article helpful. It’s important to rest the dhokla after adding the tempering. This will allow the dhokla to soak up the oil from the tempering and become even softer. Make sure the water is at a rolling boil before adding fruit salt to the batter and steaming. This is really important for super soft and spongy dhoklas. You can make these dhoklas up to a day ahead and store in the fridge overnight. Simply steam them for 5 minutes and add tempering whenever you’re ready to serve! Super handy if you’re cooking for a large crowd.
