Buckwheat dhokla hails from the state of Gujarat. It is a prominent dish, especially during the days of fasting, as the buckwheat is filled with nutrients and provides an immediate energy when consumed.
Buckwheat dhokla is made from soaking buckwheat mixed along with ragi flour, which is later incorporated with other elements. Sour curd is added to give the dhokla a hint of tangy flavour. Tempering the dhokla can be according to one's preference.
Buckwheat dhokla is usually eaten with green chutney or any spicy chutney, since the dhokla itself consists of very less spice.
Buckwheat dhokla is a scrumptious snack, which can be savoured during evening times with a delicious drink. Watch the video on how to make the buckwheat dhokla with a step-by-step procedure containing images.
