Add mustard seeds and ginger garlic paste to the marinate mixture.

Drizzle the marinate over the dhokla batter in the tray.

Place the tray in the steamer and cover with a lid.

Steam for 15-20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.

Remove the tray from the steamer and let it cool slightly.

Cut the dhokla into squares or diamond shapes.
