SUJI-OATS DHOKLA WITH NUTS TADKA /INSTANT DHOKLA WITH OATS AND SEMOLINA

A very simple and rustic SUJI-OATS dhokla turns into an impressive one with a change in the tadka or tempering. Instant suji ka dhokla is commonly cooked in my kitchen with a basic tadka of mustard seeds, and curry leaves. 

This time I tried to change authentic flavours (hoping, Gujratis would spare me). I have added a little sweetness in the form of raisins and crunch by using some crushed peanuts in the tadka/tempering. Not only this, I had used a combination of oatmeal along with semolina as a twist from a health perspective. This was done just for a change and creativity and I believe that there should be some. Always the same type of flavours make you feel dull and indifferent
