I love making Instant dhokla , this is giving a twist to the normal dhokla. Combining corn and rava makes this dhokla taste divine and it is really amazing how the fresh flavour of the crushed sweet corn kernels enhances the taste of the otherwise bland rava.When sweet corn kernels is blended with curds, these dhoklas are sure to win you many compliments. And what’s more, it can be whipped up in no time at all! fruit salt works its magic by helping the dhoklas to rise without any fermentation. lets look for the ingredients and method for making these yummy dhoklas.
