Khaman is one of Gujarat’s most loved snacks, but did you know it was originally popularised in the Surat and Saurashtra regions? Unlike white dhokla, khaman skips rice and fermentation altogether. It’s fluffy, lemony, and slightly sweet, thanks to yoghurt and a simple tadka. If you’ve only ever had packaged versions, this homemade one will taste like a bite straight out of a local farsan shop in Ahmedabad.
