Dal dhokli (Rajasthani: दाल ढोकली) (Gujarati: દાળ ઢોકળી), varan phal (Marathi: वरण फळ), or chakolya (Marathi: चकोल्या) is a Rajasthani, Gujarati and Maharashtrian dish made by boiling thick wheat flour noodles (dhokli or phal) in a pigeon pea stew (dal or varan).[1][2][3] It is considered a comfort food.[4]

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.
