Instructions

First we will soak all the daals and rice in separate vessels for 3 to 4 hrs.
Now grind them to fine paste .add in few methi seeds and leave it for fermentation for about 6 to 7 hrs .
Once fermentation is done you will get a sour smell from the batter, it is ready for the khatta dhokla. Now take two to three spoons of batter in vessel add in 1 spoon of turmeric powder powder,1 spoon green chilly + ginger paste,salt as per taste ,pinch of baking soda and 1 spoon of hot oil and now beat it very well. The fluffy batter is ready.
Now heat some water in a steamer, grease the plate with some oil on it .
Pour the batter onto the plate, sprinkle some red chilly powder on top and steam the plate for 15-20 minutes, in the steamer.
Repeat the above procedure thrice and for one of the plates, do not ad turmeric powder as we need white dhokla as one of the layers.
Now its time to make vitla khandvi.
Take one mixing bowl, add besan, butter milk, mint leaves, salt, 1 spoon turmeric powder , green chilly, a pinch of red chilly powder and mix them in a blender making sure that there are no lumps in the batter.
Now pour the batter in heavy bottomed pan and stir it on medium flame and stir it making sure that it doesn't stick to the pans.
Once it's done, take a plate, turn it upside down and grease some oil on it. Now spread the khandvi batter on to it and spread it as thin as possible. Let it cool and remove the sheet slowly and keep aside.
Now we will assemble them to form a cake.
Take a dhokla and spread some green chutney.
Cover it with white dhokla and then do it again with yellow dhokla.
Now cover the entire outer layer with green chutney.
Cut the khandvi into strips ,and arrange as shown in pic.
Now take little oil in pan, add the mustard seeds and let them crackle. Pour onto the cake. Garnish it with fresh grated coconut.
