Dhokla is a steamed savory cake that is a favorite of western India. They are usually made of semolina and chickpea flour. They are light and fluffy and taste delicious with a tangy green chutney.
I never knew there was so much variety in something this simple. Idli Dhokla is the simple recipe one can prepare any time without any laborious preparation. This dhokla is similar to regular idli and is also firm from outside. It is still just as simple to make as the regular dhokla, but now has the added goodness of green peas.
The addition of peas gives it that lovely vibrant green colour and the slight sweetness of peas.
