Method
1. Mix the millet batter with curd, turmeric, green chilli-ginger paste, sugar and salt to a thick, pourable consistency.
2. Just before steaming, stir in the fruit salt and mix gently — the batter will turn light and frothy.
3. Pour into a greased plate and steam for 15–18 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
4. Cool slightly, then cut into squares.
5. Heat oil and temper mustard seeds, sesame seeds, curry leaves and green chilli; pour over the dhokla with a little water to keep it moist.
6. Garnish with coriander and serve with green chutney.
