Hello there!! I hope you had a wonderful weekend and fathers day. How about us? We had an excellent start of the day with a very healthy breakfast – Quinoa Oats and Lentil Dosa<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n

If you haven’t check out that recipe yet, I would recommend you to come back to the top of the page once you go through this Dhokla recipe and click here<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n

As this is a special day, many stores had announced hefty Sell – how can I pass this :).<\/p>\n

I kept the Leftover batter on the countertop to ferment and we went shopping. Shopping followed by Lunch at our favorite restaurant and also fulfilled a wish of my Son to go for bowling with his father. Cherry Cobbler<\/a><\/span> was icing on the cake after light dinner. All in all, it was a busy and fun-filled day with good memories and celebration of Father’s Day.<\/p>\n

Monday morning is always very busy and lazy after weekend fun. I wanted to make something very quick and remembered have Quinoa batter which I kept to ferment.<\/p>\n

So made Dhokla out of that batter – Quinoa oats and lentil Dhokla. Whenever I make this Dhokla, it comes out super awesome, airy, soft and spongy just like our regular White dhokla.  Delighted to share a recipe today.<\/p>\n

We Gujju love Dhoklas. And these Quinoa oats and lentil Dhokla is our one of the favorites. If you are making quinoa dosa, it does not require fermentation but if you are making quinoa Dhokla, It does require fermentation. If you don’t have time and want to make it immediately,  you can add Eno. I did not add Eno-fruit salt.<\/p>\n

\"Quinoa<\/p>\n

So many of you have asked me What is Quinoa??<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to Food Network<\/a><\/span>, Quinoa is a seed — one that originated thousands of years ago in the Andes Mountains. Dubbed “the gold of the Incas,” it’s treasured because of its nutritive value (more protein than any other grain or seed!). It is yummy and nutty flavored seeds.<\/p>\n

Quinoa actually has more protein than any other grain or seed and offers a complete protein, meaning it contains all the essential amino acids our bodies can’t make on their own. It’s also a great source of calcium and is high in lysine, the B vitamins, and iron.<\/p>\n

\"Quinoa<\/p>\n

So many health benefits Right!!! This Dhokla is super healthy. I would say it is Super Food as it is packed with protein and it has many nutritious values. And more of it, it tastes scrumptious. :).<\/p>\n

Quinoa Oats And Lentil Dhokla are great for breakfast. Or this, you can have it as brunch, light dinner, is great for school lunch box or you can even make it for gatherings.<\/p>\n
