Hi Smith,
Try this recipe.
Ingredients:

wheat flour 2 cups
Chopped methi leaves 1 cup
Ajwan seeds 2 tesp
Red chilly powder 1/4 sp
Oil for making the khakra
Salt

Method:


Mix all the ingredients and knead by adding little water at a time, till it becomes soft dough.
Keep aside covered for 15 minutes.
Make 20 balls of the dough.
Roll out a ball into very thin chappati.
Heat the griddle in medium high and put chappati on it.
Add 1 teaspoon of oil and keep pressing it on the griddle not allowing it to puff.
Continue the Press and cook method on medium heat until the rounds become crisp. Now the crisp 'khakra’s are ready to serve.
Continue the same with the other balls and enjoy them as a snack or store them.

Note: You can use a wooden press to press the chappati. You can also do plain chappati to make 'plain khakra' without adding methi leaves.
While adding methi leaves you can add fresh or dried one.

Here I am giving a link for 'Saudi Crispy Chappati' try this also. Just click on it to view the recipe.

Default Re: dhokla

sashie,
I do follow the recipe given below for an instant dhokla, but it is with besan flour...
You can also see the recipes section in IL....too...

Besan flour----1 1/2 cup
water or buttermilk-------1 cup
ginger, green chillies paste--2 tsp
oil-------------------------------------2 tbsp
sugar---------------------------------2 tbsp
Fruit salt or Eno fruit salt---1 1/2 tsp
baking soda---------------------1/4 tsp
lime juice-------------------------2 tbsp
turmeric powder--
salt.

Mix the above ingredients and beat well-- for a min.
Place this in a greased plate and steam it for 10 min. in the pressure cooker (don't put the weight)
After taking it out, temper with mustard seeds, green chillies and 2tsp water.

After 1/2 an hour cut it and enjoy it....

PS_ you can microwave for 6 min too...
