A traditional gujarati savory cake made with rice, lentils(or instant version with Soji Besan) and lots of vegetable like bottle gourd, fenugreek leaves and carrots. ... The key ingredient in this recipe is the dudhi/lauki/bottle gourd that gives the cake a super moist texture. But when the bottle gourd is not available, I love to use Zucchini
