DOSAI DHOKLA....દોસા ના ખમણ ઢોકળા

When ever I get bored cooking the same things again and again, my fingers start itching to fashion something new and different. Last week, we had prepared Masala Dosais and I was left with some sour batter which was occupying space in my fridge.
My urge to be different got better of me and I set about making Khaman Dhokla using DOSAI BATTER (Three days old and sour).

What came out at the end of a rather simple but imaginative exercise thrilled my whole family because this DOSA KHAMAN DHOKLA had different taste and wonderful texture.It is very easy to make and your family would really love this new dish.
