This green moong dhokla is a low calorie and protein rich snacks ,easy to prepare and very delicious. People who actually avoid to eat green gram dal, never refuse to the dhokla , prepared by the same dal. The natural fermentation and tempering of dhokla with spices and lemon, imparts a delicious taste.
