This signature gujarati dish is a popular tea-time choice. The fruit salt makes the dhoklas so fluffy that your children will keep asking for it every day! it is so easy to prepare and uses such common ingredients that it is not difficult to oblige them… just that you need to plan in advance because it calls for a four-hour soaking time. Another plus point about this recipe is that the same batter can also be used to turn out a variety of other dishes like chillas, utthapas and pankis.
