To make delicious Khaman Dhokla, first take a big bowl. Sieve a certain amount of gram flour in a bowl. Then add curd to gram flour and mix. Then add turmeric, 1 tablespoon oil, lemon juice and salt as per taste and mix well. Add little water to it and prepare a smooth paste.

After this, add baking soda to the gram flour solution and keep stirring on low flame. – After this take a vessel to make Dhokla. Apply oil inside the vessel with the help of a brush.

If gram flour is not cooked, it sticks to the knife. If the Khaman is a little hard then you can steam it for 5-10 minutes. After this, turn off the gas and let the Dhokla cool down. When the dhokla cools down, cut it into small pieces with the help of a knife.
