Khaman also known as Khaman Dhokla is a savory cake made with a batter of gram flour and a leavening agent. The batter is steamed in a mould to get a fluffy and soft savory cake. It is topped with a flavorful tempering made with mustard, green chilies, sesame seeds, hing and curry leaves.
When we add water to the dough, the baking soda that is present in it undergoes a chemical reaction in which carbon dioxide gas is created. As a result, the carbon dioxide gas is trapped in the dough and comes out on the form of bubbles making these food products soft and spongy.
Outside Gujarat, dhokla is popularly known as khaman dhokla, although they are two different dishes. Dhoklas can be made from rice, lentils, semolina or millets, whereas khaman is made with besan or chickpea flour. In terms of texture, khaman is lighter and more pillowy.
Since dhokla goes through a steaming process, it is healthy. It is a perfect addition to your weight loss plan because it is rich in protein, fibre, and other nutrients. However, please consume 1 or 2 pieces of dhokla to stay in the 150-200 calorie range. It is ideal for breakfast or an evening snack option.
