When I have browsing some youtube videos, I came across Tarla Dalala's Oats,semolina and spinach dhokla. I got surprised by the unique combination and its is doubtlessly nutrition rich. Immediately I decided to do the recipe with a small alteration, instead of the normal semolina I have used broken wheat. Yes! Oats, Broken Wheat, Spinach Dhokla, a very yummy and healthy dish. This is a no oil Dhokla except a few drops to grease the cake tin or cooker vessel.

Method:
- Take the oats to the mixer and grind the oats to a coarse powder.
- Heat a pan and dry fry the broken wheat till we get a nice aroma and turns slightly red color. Take the dry roasted broken wheat in a big bowl. To the broken wheat add coarsely ground oats, curd, green chilli paste, and salt
- Mix all the ingredients by adding water little by little and keep it aside covered for atleast 15minutes. Meanwhile add water to the pressure cooker and cover it with the lid bring it to boil. After 15 minutes, we may need to add some more water as the broken wheat absorbs all the water. Water level cannot be specified as we need to see and add the water as needed. To the dhokla batter add chopped spinach and mix well
- Lastly, we need to add the eno salt. After adding eno sat, just sprinkle very little water over the eno salt and you could see bubbles rising up. Gently stir up once. After adding eno salt we should not stir well.
- Pour the batter to the greased cake tin or cooker vessel and pat it once to level the mixture in the vessel. Place the cake tin inside the cooker and pressure cook it for 25 minutes. After 25 minutes, insert a toothpick to check if it comes clean and then switch off the flame. Allow to the cooked dhokla to cool off fully and then carefully invert the cake tin and give a pat. Then using a knife make square or diamond piece dhoklas.
- Serve the yummy and healthy Oats, Broken Wheat, Spinach Dhokla with green chutney.
