    - Soak Wheafree Sorghum Sooji in hot water for 20-30 minutes. Drain off the water and keep aside.
    - Mix Wheafree Besan, Wheafree Sorghum Sooji, sugar, turmeric powder, oil and salt together in a mixing bowl.
    - Pour desired quantity of water so that the batter is of pouring consistency and not runny. Mix it to form a smooth batter.
    - Once the batter is smooth add 1 tsp water and add Eno fruit salt into it. Stir gently with light hands so that the batter gets bubbly and Eno is evenly mixed.
    - Grease the container of your choice with oil. You can use a spring-foam pan or microwave safe dish or an idli mould.
    - Pour the batter into the container.

    To Steam It:

    - Microwave- For 3 minutes
    - You can insert a toothpick to check if the dhokla is done. It should come out clean. If the toothpick has batter on it, then you need to steam/microwave for another minutes or so.
    - Once done, remove it and let it stand for 2 minutes.

    For the Tempering and Garnish:
