Need Some Dhoklas For Breakfast: Recipe Inside

What is Dhokla?

Dhokla is a vegetarian meal that is mostly found in Gujarat, India, and parts of neighboring states. It is cooked with rice and a fermented batter made from legumes like as chickpeas, pigeon peas, and urad. Dhokla can be served as a breakfast item, the main dish, a side dish, or a snack. Dhokla and Khaman are extremely similar, although Khaman is often made from chickpeas, and has a yellow tint. Outside of Gujarat, Khaman is commonly misinterpreted or wrongly referred to as Dhokla.
