1. Add the following to the dough mixture:
   • ½ teaspoon thai chili
   • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
   • ¾ teaspoon fresh ginger root
   • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
   • 1 teaspoon sugar
   • pinch of turmeric

3. Add the water to the steamer and bring it to a boil
4. Once the steamer is boiling add ½ teaspoon baking soda to the dhokla dough. Pro-Tip: Dhokla dough should double in size and become really bubbly. 
5. Pour the dhokla dough into the oiled pan. 
6. Place the pan into the steamer and let cook for 12 minutes. Pro-Tip: Do not let he dough be thicker than 1 inch in the pan because it could require you to cook for longer.
   • Toothpick Test: Stick a toothpick into the center of the dhokla. If there is wet batter still on the toothpick, it needs more time in the oven. If it comes out clean, your cake is done.
7. Once the dhokla is cooked remove it from the steamer and place on the side to cool.

   • 1 teaspoon canola oil
   • 1½ teaspoon mustard seeds

    • 1 teaspoon sugar
    • 1 tablespoons water
11. Bring the pan to a boil for 1 minute than remove from heat. 
12. Remember to check the flavor!

      • pinch of thai chili
      • ¼ teaspoon minced garlic cloves
      • ¼ teaspoon fresh ginger root
      • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
13. Remove the dhokla from the pan and pour the contents of the small pan evenly over the top of the dhokla. Cut the dhokla into even parts and top with optional ingredients.
