Instructions

Prepare the Dokla Batter

Combine semolina, yogurt, salt, baking soda, and cumin seeds in a bowl. Gradually add water, whisking constantly until you achieve a smooth, pourable batter. Let it rest for 15 minutes.

Prepare the Spiced Potato Filling

Heat oil in a pan. Add mustard seeds and let them splutter. Add chopped onions and sauté until translucent. Add mashed potatoes, chili powder, turmeric powder, cumin powder, and salt. Mix well and cook for 2-3 minutes.

Steam the Dokla

Grease a deep bowl or a steamer with ghee or oil. Pour half of the batter into the greased bowl. Spread the potato filling evenly over the batter. Pour the remaining batter on top.

Steam and Temper

Steam the dokla for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Meanwhile, prepare the tadka: Heat oil in a pan, add mustard seeds, green chilies, and curry leaves. Once the mustard seeds splutter, remove from heat.

Finishing Touch

Remove the steamed dokla from the steamer. Pour the tadka evenly over the top. Let it cool slightly before cutting and serving.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Spiced Potato-Stuffed Suji Dokla

For extra fluffiness, whisk the batter vigorously before steaming.
Ensure the potatoes are well-mashed for a smooth filling. A potato ricer is recommended.
Don't over-steam the dokla, or it will become dense. Check for doneness with a toothpick.
Adjust the chili powder according to your spice preference. Start with less and add more as needed.
