Pizza Dhokla | Fusion Dhokla Recipe | Vegetable Pizza Dhokla | Instant Snack Recipe
Pizza dhokla is a fusion snack that combines soft steamed dhokla with pizza-style toppings like vegetables, sauce, and cheese. The fluffy base absorbs the flavours well while the topping adds a colourful and satisfying finish. Steam the dhokla until soft before adding the toppings and heating just enough to melt the cheese. It is a simple recipe that works well as an evening snack, party appetiser, or lunchbox option.
