Dhokla chaat is very tasty and at the same time very easy to make.  It can be prepared with leftover dhokla too.  Though here I have made fresh besan dhokla in microwave. It tastes just like dahi bada, but it is more healthier than that.  Here below is the whole process of besan dhokla and its chaat:
Ingredients
For Dhokla
3/4 cup of besan(rice cooker cup)
1/4 cup of semolina
salt to taste
1/2 tsp of turmeric powder
1 tsp of sugar
1tsp of ginger paste
1/2 cup of sour curd
1/2 tsp of lime juice
1/2 tsp of Eno
1/4 cup of water 
2 tbsp of oil
pinch of asafetida
2 slit or chopped green chilies 
few curry leaves
1 tsp of mustard seeds
For chaat 
1 cup of curd
1/2 tsp of roasted cumin powder
1 tsp of sugar
 black salt to taste
1/4 tsp of garam masala
1/4 tso of red chili powder 
4 tbsp of tamarind chutney
2 tbsp of green chutney
handful of boiled black chole/channe
basen namkeen sev
Method
1.  Take the besan and semolina in a bowl with salt, turmeric, sugar and mix well.
2.  Add curd and water to it and make smooth batter of it. Keep it aside for rest so that semolina can absorb water.
3.  Next add ginger and mix.
4.Heat the oil in a pan for tempering.  First put slit green chilies and fry it little bit and take out. Next add mustard seeds. Let it splutter till it stops itself. Now add curry patta and pinch of heeng.  When its done, remove from fire and pour it on the dhokla batter.
5.  Grease the microwave proof bowl.  Bowl should be with lid.
6.  Now add Eno and mix it very gently/light hand.
7.  After that, pour it into the greased bowl and cover it with lid as shown in picture.
8.  Now place it in microwave .
9.  Microwave it for 5 minutes.
10.  Soft dhokla is ready.
11.  Let it cool completely and cut into desired shapes.
Preparing Curd
12. Take curd in bowl. Filter it though a sieve.  Now add black salt, red chili powder, garam masala and roasted cumin powder.
Preparing Plate
13. Place few pieces of dhokla on a plate. Cover it with spicy curd.
14. Put kale/black chole, imli/tamarind chutney and any green chutney over it.
15. It can be garnished with radish julienne , mint or cilantro and sev.
