Khaman

Khaman (; also khamani, khamni) is a savoury snack from India that originated in Gujarat. Khaman is made from ground chickpeas (chana dal) or chana gram flour (besan), usually with lemon juice, semolina, and curd. A final tadka can be added, using ingredients such as asafoetida and chillies.

Popular variants include sev khamani, topped with crispy sev, and dahi khamani with yoghurt.

Khaman outwardly resembles dhokla, but dhokla is prepared from a fermented batter that also contains rice.
