Remove the Tirupati Khiru’s Yellow Dhokla batter into a big bowl or vessel. Then briskly whip with a spatula, spoon or a wired whisk for 2 to 3 minutes. Add salt to taste.Add 1 teaspoon fruit salt (Eno) to the batter. You can also add ½ teaspoon baking soda instead of fruit salt. Be quick enough to stir and mix the fruit salt evenly in the batter.
Pour the batter in a greased steamer pan and sprinkle some black pepper powder, red chili powder and roasted sesame seeds on top. The amount of black pepper powder, red chili powder and roasted sesame seeds is as per your taste.
Before steaming, you will have to keep 2 to 2.5 cups water with a trivet in a large pan and let the water come to a boil. When you keep the steaming pan with the batter, the water should already be hot and boiling. Take care when placing the batter pan on the trivet as the water and steam will be very hot. You can also use a pan like I have used that has side handles or use tongs to place the pan on the trivet. Steam for 15 to 20 minutes or till a toothpick inserted in the dhokla comes out clean. Once done, let it cool completely and then remove the dhokla gently on a serving plate.
Its not necessary to temper White Dhokla. You can slice it into desired shape and serve straightaway as a tea-time or evening snack.
You can serve it either warm or at room temperature with Coriander Chutney, Mint Chutney, Coconut Chutney or with a sweet chutney like Tamarind Chutney.
