Khaman Dhokla | Savory Gram Flour Steamed Cake
Khaman Dhokla is one of the most popular Gujarati snacks that is made with gram flour (chickpea flour) and which makes for a quite healthy and nutritious option to satiate those sudden hunger pangs. Owing to its steamed cooking style, it is also a guilt-free choice, perfect for the weight watchers and those looking to shed few extra kilos. Needless to say, made using chickpea flour, it is gluten-free and provides for an ideal snacking option for the ones sensitive to gluten. Technically speaking, Khaman and Dhokla are two different snacks; the latter one originally made from a batter of chana dal and rice fermented overnight. As fermentation is a bit time taking process, Khaman comes to the rescue and provides for an instant substitute with no fermentation hassles. Absolutely soft and spongy, plus loaded with a medley of flavors: a bit sweet, bit tangy and bit spicy, it is one of my go-to recipes when it comes to satiating my taste buds asking for some " chatpata snack
