389 kcal

01 Nutrition density: why C

Protein is 21.05 g per 100 g, and Bengal gram dal is the largest source, giving about 10.5 g of it. Fibre is 3.91 g per 100 g. Energy is 388.64 kcal per 100 g of dry mix, so the base is a starchy, dal-led flour.

Iron (3.02 mg) and calcium (51.78 mg) are declared, but not enough to earn a micronutrient bonus. The grade rests on protein and fibre.

Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

02 Ingredient integrity: why A

The list is short and mostly whole: Bengal gram dal at 80%, then sugar, salt, semolina and turmeric. The raising agent (INS 500 II) and the acidity regulator (INS 296) are plain kitchen-style additives and cost no points.

No hydrogenated fat, no colour, no flavouring and no label penalty apply. Only the dal share is declared as a percentage, which is a small gap in the list.

Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.

03 Load risk: why 4

Sodium is the main driver of the risk number: 1,507.92 mg per 100 g, about 3.8 g of salt. Added sugar of 12 g and energy of 388.64 kcal add a smaller share.

Saturated fat is low at 0.59 g per 100 g and trans fat is under 0.05 g, so neither plays a real part.

Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Does Organic Tattva Khaman Dhokla Instant Mix live up to its claims?

Rich in protein, organic and no preservatives all hold. The only conflict is a retailer page showing higher fat figures than the pack panel.

  • On the pack

    “Rich in Protein”

    Holds

    The panel shows 21.05 g protein per 100 g of mix, mostly from the Bengal gram dal.

  • On the pack

    “Organic Bengal Gram Dal (80%)”

    Holds

    The dal is the first ingredient at 80%, and the pack carries NPOP and Jaivik Bharat marks and a certifier's name. Semolina and sugar are also printed as organic.

  • On the pack

    “No Added Preservatives, Artificial Flavours and Colours”

    Holds

    None is listed. The only additives are a raising agent (INS 500 II) and an acidity regulator (INS 296).

  • Retail listing

    “Fat 6.81 g, saturated fat 2.68 g”

    Be careful

    The retailer page shows 6.81 g fat and 2.68 g saturated fat per 100 g, the pack shows 4.56 g and 0.59 g per 100 g.

What's in Organic Tattva Khaman Dhokla Instant Mix?

Bengal gram dal at 80% leads, followed by sugar, salt, two plain additives, semolina and turmeric. The salt and the sugar are what to watch.

How we rate additives →

7 ingredients listed. None of them is an additive or watched ingredient in our research. 2 more entries look like additives we have not researched yet.

The ingredient list, read for you

Bengal gram dal makes up 80% of the mix and provides the protein and the body of the batter. Sugar and salt follow, then the raising agent (INS 500 II) that makes the dhokla puff and the acidity regulator (INS 296) that adds tang. Semolina and turmeric powder come last, for texture and colour. Only the dal has a declared percentage.

The label numbers, read for you

Sodium is the number that decides the score: 1,507.92 mg per 100 g of dry mix, about 3.8 g of salt. The pack's 100 g serve is half the pack. Added sugar is 12 g per 100 g, which makes sugar the second ingredient by weight.

Protein is the strength at 21.05 g per 100 g, with 3.91 g fibre. Saturated fat is 0.59 g, and cholesterol is under 0.1 mg. Iron is 3.02 mg and calcium 51.78 mg. These figures are for the dry mix, so the oil added at home is not counted.

Not in our additive research yet: Raising Agent (INS 500 II); Acidity Regulator (INS 296).

Ingredients to watch

  • Raising Agent (INS 500 II)Fine

    Sodium carbonates release gas in the batter so the dhokla steams up soft and light.

  • Acidity Regulator (INS 296)Fine

    Malic acid is a food acid that balances the raising agent and adds a slight tang to the batter.

What it doesn’t have

  • Only the dal share is declared; sugar, salt and semolina have no percentages.
  • No vitamins are declared, only iron and calcium.

What to know about Organic Tattva Khaman Dhokla Instant Mix

A high-protein dhokla mix with a lot of salt

A 200 g pack of instant khaman dhokla mix, built on Bengal gram (chana) dal at 80%, with sugar, salt, a raising agent (INS 500 II), an acidity regulator (INS 296), semolina and turmeric powder. It is sold as a quick way to make soft Gujarati dhokla at home, and it carries organic certification marks on the front.

Per 100 g of dry mix the panel shows 388.64 kcal, 21.05 g protein, 3.91 g fibre, 12 g added sugar and 1,507.92 mg sodium. The pack calls 100 g a serve and says there are two servings in the pack. The 200 g makes 20 to 24 pieces once you add water and oil.

The front promises protein, organic ingredients and no preservatives, colours or flavours, and the label backs those up. What it does not stress is the salt, which is high for a snack mix. CleanPlate scores it CA4.

Classic khaman with chutneys

Steam the batter as the pack directs and serve with imli and pudina chutney, as the pack suggests, in a few pieces rather than the full 100 g serve.
