About Dhokla

Dhokla is a soft, spongy, and savory steamed cake originating from the Indian state of Gujarat. Made primarily from fermented rice and chickpea (gram) flour, it is seasoned with mustard seeds, curry leaves, green chilies, and garnished with fresh coriander and grated coconut. As a product of fermentation, Dhokla is probiotic-rich, aiding digestion and gut health. It’s naturally low in fat and provides a good source of protein, making it a light yet nutritious snack or meal option. The steaming process ensures minimal oil usage for preparation, enhancing its health benefits. However, sodium content can be on the higher side due to added salt, so moderate consumption is advised for those with sodium restrictions. Dhokla’s balance of flavor and nutrition makes it a popular choice across Indian households and a delightful, wholesome addition to any diet.
