Dhokla
Also called: dhokla, khaman
A steamed, fermented gram-flour cake — light and spongy.
How Dhokla affects your doshas
In Ayurveda a food's effect depends on your constitution. This is the lens the app uses to suggest what to favour and ease off.
| Dosha | Suitability | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Vata | Use sparingly | Can raise Vata — go easy when Vata runs high. |
| Pitta | Neutral | Broadly neutral for Pitta. |
| Kapha | Neutral | Broadly neutral for Kapha. |
When to go easy
Gram flour is astringent, so it can be a little Vata-provoking.
