Nutrition Facts (Per 100 g of the Dry Mix)

Here are typical values per 100 g of Gits Khatta Dhokla Mix:

What to Keep in Mind

• The values above are for the dry mix, before cooking. When you actually prepare the dhokla (steaming, adding water, possibly garnishes or tempering), the nutritional values will change (volume, water content, possible added oil or sugar etc.).

• Salt content is fairly high (≈ 3.0 g/100 g of dry mix) — once the mix is diluted/cooked, sodium per serving will be less, but still something to watch if you're monitoring salt intake.

• Low in fat and saturated fat — that’s good.

• Protein is moderate due to the lentil flour in the mix.
