Helpful Tips:
1. Before you add fruit salt, make sure the water in the steamer is boiling.
2. Once the fruit salt is added, stir it in one direction only, this will allow the chemical reaction to occur in such a way that air is trapped in the mixture, making your Dhokra fluffy.
3.The towel is added to the lid to attract moisture, preventing the Dhokra from getting soggy.
4.The spices can be adjusted to your taste.
5. Garnish with the red chilli powder only after the Dhokra is finished cooking otherwise, if you put it before, your Dhokra will be completely red.
