Broccoli Dhokla


Since I was satisfied with my sweet corn dhokla last time, I decided try another version of dhokla, which is almost a very similar recipe.  This recipe is also adapted from Tarladala's site.  The actual recipe suggested green peas and a bit different combination of ingredients.  Yet the idea of doing this dhokla originated from Tarladala's site.  Hope you enjoy making this dhokla.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 10 minutes
Serves 3 to 4


Ingredients:
Bulgurwheat- 1 cup
Semolina- 1/2 cup
Broccoli Puree- 1 cup
Yogurt- 2 cups
Bicarbonate of soda- 1/2 tsp
Salt- 1/2 tsp


Method:
To make broccoli puree:
Add 5 to 6 florets of broccoli in boiling water for 3 minutes. Remove it and puree it in a blender by adding little water.
Mix all the ingredients together in a large bowl, until they look well combined.  Grease a round pan, pour the batter and steam it in a steamer for 5 to 10 minutes, or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
Serve the dhoklas warm with tomato chutney.  I served it with some beetroot chutney.
