Cooking the Dim Bhapa Recipe
10.In a sauce pan or pressure cooker, put in the tiffin box.
11.Add water so that the level of the water does not rise more than 40% of the tiffin box.
12.Cover the sauce pan or pressure cooker to prevent the steam from escaping.
13.Switch on the flame and let the steam cook for 15 to 20 minutes.
14.Once done, switch off the flame and very carefully take the tiffin box out of the sauce pan or pressure cooker. Remember that it will be very hot and hence you should exercise extreme caution during this step.
