Khaman (Gujarati: ખમણ; 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.[1]

Popular variants include sev khamani, topped with crispy sev, and dahi khamani with yoghurt.[2]
Khaman outwardly resembles dhokla, but dhokla is prepared from a fermented batter that also contains rice.[1]
