Dhokla

Dhokla or dokla is a savoury sponge dish that originated in the Indian state of Gujarat. It is made with a fermented batter that is steamed to a cake-like consistency. The batter consists of a mixture of rice with Bengal gram,, a variety of chickpea, but has several variants with the gram replaced by pigeon peas, or urad beans. In 2018, it was reported that Ahmedabad reportedly had daily consumption of 10,000 kgs of Dhokla.
