How to Prepare Kiro Ragi Dhokla Premix (No Fermentation)

Ingredients

  • Kiro Ragi Dhokla Premix – 1 cup (approx. 100–120 g)

  • Water – ¾ cup (as needed)

  • ENO Fruit Salt – ½ tsp

  • Salt – to taste 

  • Oil – for greasing

Optional (for traditional dhokla flavour):

  • Lemon juice – 1 tsp

  • Sugar – ½ tsp


Method

  1. Prepare the Batter
    In a bowl, add the ragi premix, salt, lemon juice, and sugar (if using).
    Add water gradually and whisk to form a smooth, pourable but thick batter (slightly thicker than idli batter).

  2. Rest the Batter
    Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.

  3. Add ENO
    Just before steaming, add ½ tsp ENO to the batter.
    Mix gently once in one direction.
    Batter will become light and airy.

  4. Steam the Dhokla
    Grease a flat plate or dhokla tray.
    Pour batter evenly and steam in a preheated steamer for 12–15 minutes on medium heat.

  5. Check & Cool
    Insert a toothpick—if it comes out clean, dhokla is ready.
    Let it cool slightly, then cut into pieces.


Optional Tempering (Traditional Style)

Heat 1 tsp oil, add:

  • Mustard seeds – ½ tsp

  • Curry leaves – few

  • Green chillies – optional
    Pour over steamed dhokla and garnish with coriander.


Serving Suggestion

Serve with green chutney or sweet tamarind chutney.


Tips (Good for consumer education)

  • Do not overmix after adding ENO.

  • Always steam immediately after ENO is added.

  • For extra softness, add 1 tbsp curd (optional).
