Khesari Dal (Grass Pea)~500 Gm

Product Overview

Our Khesari Dal is sourced from the finest seasonal crops, meticulously cleaned and split to ensure a uniform cooking experience. Known for its robust texture, this dal holds its shape well and offers a distinct nutty profile that sets it apart from more common lentils. This 500g pack is hygienically processed and double-cleaned to ensure it is free from stones and impurities.

Key Features

• Traditional Earthy Flavor: Offers a deep, savory, and slightly nutty taste that is a signature of rural and authentic regional cuisines.
• Superior Texture: When boiled, it achieves a thick, creamy consistency that is perfect for pairing with steamed rice or flatbreads.
• 100% Pure & Natural: No artificial polish, colors, or preservatives—delivering the authentic taste of the farm to your home.
• Culinary Versatility: While popular as a daily dal, it is the preferred choice for making traditional "Piaju" or "Bada" (lentil fritters) due to its superior crunch.
• Economical & Nutritious: A high-protein, cost-effective staple that provides lasting energy and satiety.

Nutritional Benefits (per 100g serving)

• High Plant Protein: An excellent source of protein for muscle maintenance and daily strength.
• Complex Carbohydrates: Provides a slow release of energy, keeping you full for longer periods.
• Dietary Fiber: Supports healthy digestion and overall gut health.

How to Use

1.      Daily Dal: Pressure cook with a pinch of turmeric and salt. Finish with a "Tarka" of sliced onions, garlic, and dried red chilies in mustard oil for a truly authentic experience.

2.      Crispy Fritters (Bada/Piaju): Soak for 3–4 hours, then grind into a coarse paste. Mix with chopped onions, green chilies, and coriander, then deep fry for the ultimate evening snack.

3.      Thick Stews: Its natural thickening properties make it ideal for hearty vegetable stews or mixed lentil dishes.

4.      Pro Tip: Always rinse thoroughly 3–4 times before cooking. Soaking for at least 1–2 hours helps ensure a softer, creamier texture and faster cooking.
