Khaman Recipe: Make Super Spongy, Jali-like Dhokla With This Nylon Khaman Trick!

Here are the ingredients: 1 cup besan, 2 tbsp sooji, ½ cup dahi, a pinch of haldi, salt to taste, 1 tbsp sugar, and 1 tbsp lemon juice. You'll also need 1 packet of Eno. For the tadka, you need 2 tbsp oil, 1 tsp rai, 8-10 curry leaves, 2 slit green chillies, 1 tbsp sugar, and ½ cup water.

To make Nylon Khaman, first take a large bowl and mix the besan, sooji, and dahi well. Add salt, haldi, and a little water to make a smooth batter. Make sure the batter isn't too thin or thick, or the Khaman won't get that net-like 'jali'. After making the batter, let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes. This helps the sooji swell up and makes the khaman spongy when steamed.Read more- Avoid these 3 mistakes if you want juicy, net-like Khaman Dhokla

Immediately pour the batter onto the greased plate and steam for 10 to 15 minutes. To check if it's done, insert a toothpick. If it comes out clean, the khaman is ready. If not, steam it for another three to four minutes.

To make the Nylon Khaman's tadka, heat oil in a pan. Add rai, then curry leaves and green chillies. Now, pour in half a cup of water and sugar, and let it boil well. Meanwhile, cut the prepared khaman into square pieces. Pour this tadka over the pieces to make them soft and juicy. Garnish with fresh coriander and grated coconut, and serve with green chutney.
