For
garnish
Corriander
leaves and grated coconut (optional).
In a bowl mix together besan, rava, green chilly-ginger paste, curd, salt, sugar, lime juice and 2 tbsp oil. Add water little by little and make a smooth batter. Beat the batter in one direction for about 5 minutes. This will make the dhokla soft and fluggy. Let it rest for about 15-20 minutes.
Now, divide the batter into two parts. In one part add 1 tsp eno and mix gently. The batter will rise immediately. Quickly pour into pre-greased plate/vessel meant for making dholka. Steam it for 20 minutes in cooker or steamer. After removing from cooker, pour 1-2 tbsp of water on it (which has some sugar added to it). Repeat for the balance batter.

For Tempering
Heat oil,
add mustard. When it crackles, add jeera, a pinch of hing, 1 tsp til, 1 tsp
sugar, curry leaves, green chilly-slit lengthwise. Saute for sometime; Remove
from flame and add ½ cup water. Pour this tempering evenly on the dhokla. The
water will be absorbed by the dhokla making it soft.
