* Firstly, make sure to add water slowly, as the consistency of the batter is very important.
* Also, after adding Eno fruit salt, steam the batter immediately, or else the dhokla will not be soft and fluffy.
* Additionally, instead of lemon juice, you can use citric acid. And in place of eno fruit salt add baking soda.
* Finally, **Nylon Khaman Dhokla Recipe** has to be steamed well, or else the dhokla will remain raw in the center.
