Dhokla is a healthy and popular snack from Gujarat, known for its light, airy texture and tangy-sweet flavor. It is tempered with mustard seeds, curry leaves, and green chilies, often garnished with fresh coriander and grated coconut. Varieties like Khaman Dhokla (made with chickpea flour) are particularly famous. It is typically served with green chutney and fried green chilies.
