- In another bowl whisk together all wet ingredients.
- Now gently mix together both and whisk it well so that there are no lumps at all and you get at smooth batter.
- Don’t over mix. We just need a lump free batter here.

- For pressure cooker method :
- Remove the whistle and rubber ring of the pressure cooker.
