Arhar Dal (Toor Dal / Split Pigeon Peas) - Guthni - 1 kg

Arhar Dal, also called toor dal or tuvar dal, is split pigeon peas with the outer skin removed. The yellow, flat lentils cook into a soft, creamy dal with a mild, nutty taste, and they are a daily staple in homes across India. In North India arhar dal is cooked with haldi and salt, then finished with a tadka of ghee, jeera, garlic and red chilli to eat with rice or roti. In South India it is the base of sambar and rasam, and in Gujarat it is used for sweet and sour Gujarati dal. It also goes into khichdi and dal fry. Rinse the dal well, soak it for 20 to 30 minutes if you like, and pressure cook it until soft. Store it in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. This arhar dal is sold under the Guthni brand by Guthni Farmer Producer Company Limited. Available in a 1 kg pack, delivered across India.
