Oats Sooji Dhokla

Cultural Context

Originating from the Indian state of Gujarat, dhokla is a popular snack made from fermented batter. Traditionally made with chickpea flour, this variation uses oats and semolina, making it a healthier option. Dhokla is often served as a breakfast item or snack, celebrated for its light texture and savory flavor, and enjoyed at tea time or during festive occasions. Today, it has found popularity beyond India, with various adaptations worldwide, reflecting its versatility and appeal.
