About the Recipe

Dhokla is a popular and traditional Indian recipe. Today we are going to make Dhokla with Moong dal. One of the key issues that people face when steaming dhokla is that it gets stuck to the pan. When we take it out, the shape gets broken. Ecobake helps in getting perfect dhokla shape without any greasing and no need of cleaning afterwards.
