Product Details:

To prepare Khaman (a popular Gujarati snack) using instant Khaman mix, you'll need the following ingredients and steps:

Ingredients:

• 1 kg instant Khaman mix
• Water (as per package instructions)
• Oil for greasing
• For tempering:
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 2-3 green chilies, chopped
  • A few curry leaves
  • 1/4 cup chopped coriander leaves
  • 2 tablespoons shredded coconut (optional)
  • Salt to taste
  • Sugar to taste
  • Lemon juice (optional)

Instructions:

1. Follow the instructions on the instant Khaman mix package to prepare the batter. Typically, you'll need to mix the instant Khaman mix with water to form a smooth batter. The consistency should be thick yet pourable. Let the batter rest for a few minutes as per the instructions.
2. Meanwhile, grease a shallow dish or thali with oil. Set it aside.
3. Once the batter is ready, pour it into the greased dish and spread it evenly.
4. Steam the batter in a steamer or pressure cooker without the whistle for about 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
5. Once cooked, remove the steamed Khaman from the steamer and let it cool slightly.
6. In a small pan, heat oil for tempering. Add mustard seeds and let them splutter. Then add sesame seeds and sauté until they turn golden brown.
7. Add chopped green chilies and curry leaves to the tempering and sauté for a few seconds.
8. Pour the tempering evenly over the steamed Khaman.
9. Sprinkle salt and sugar evenly over the Khaman. Optionally, squeeze some lemon juice over it for extra tanginess.
10. Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and shredded coconut (if using).
11. Allow the Khaman to cool down completely before cutting it into squares or diamonds.
12. Serve the Khaman as a snack or as part of a meal. It's delicious on its own or served with green chutney or tamarind chutney.
