Gram Flour and Semolina Dhokla is a traditional Indian steamed savory cake originating from Gujarat and Maharashtra. It is made by fermenting a batter of gram flour (chickpea flour) and semolina (suji), resulting in a light, fluffy texture with a mildly tangy flavor. Commonly served as a breakfast item or snack, it is often garnished with mustard seeds, curry leaves, and fresh coriander.
This dish provides significant amounts of Vitamin K, Vitamin E, and Folate (B9), alongside minerals like Manganese and Phosphorus. These nutrients reflect the underlying components of gram flour and semolina, combined with fermentation effects.
Suitable for vegetarian diets, it contains no animal products but may include dairy if ghee or butter is used for tempering. It is a balanced snack option used across various meal times.
