Marble Sooji or Rava Dhokla – Holi Special

Holi is a Hindu spring festival also known as the “festival of colors”. The festival signifies the victory of good over evil, the arrival of spring, end of winter, and for many a festive day to meet others, play and laugh, forget and forgive. It is also celebrated as a thanksgiving for a good harvest. Holi is also a festival when each household prepares Holi recipes at home, which are served to guests who come to visit at home for giving their wishes. One of my favorite breakfast is Dhokla. So, I decided to make colorful rava dhokla with all natural colors. I used beetroot for pink colour, turmeric for yellow colour, palak or spinach for green colour.
