Tomato Dhokla

I have cooked Dhokla and peas dhokla. But this name intrigued me when I saw it on Radhika’s space.Since I am doing kids delight under 30 minutes as theme,I decided to try this and it was perfect snack for my daughter. My nephew happened to visit us today and he gave a thumbs up too.This is a perfect guilt free snack for not only a kid but for us too:-)
