Dal Dhokli

Dal Dhokli is a comforting Gujarati dish made by cooking wheat flour dumplings (dhokli) in a spiced, tangy lentil soup (dal). The soft dumplings absorb the flavors of the dal, creating a hearty and flavorful one-pot meal, often garnished with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime. It's a perfect combination of savory, spicy, and slightly sour tastes.
