Soya Khaman Dhokla
Soya Khaman Dhokla brings a healthy twist to the traditional favourite by combining soya flour with the gram flour used to make the batter. This peps up the iron, protein and folic acid content of this desi snack, making it a healthy treat for pregnant women. Remember that the consistency of the batter and perfection in tempering are two keys to the success of any dhokla, so pay attention to these aspects. Serve with green chutney.
Preparation Time: 5 minutes.
