Dal Dhokli is a Gujarati, Rajasthani and Maharashtrian dish made by boiling flour based noodles or dumpling in split pigeon peas stew. It is widely believed that the Marwaris who had migrated to Gujarat invented the dish. While the dish remains popular in Marwar part of Rajasthan, it is Gujaratis who have made it a staple in their homes. It is considered a comfort food.
