Sabut Masoor Dal (Kali Masoor / Whole Black Lentils) - Ancy - 500 g

Kali masoor, also called sabut masoor or whole masoor dal, is the whole lentil with its dark brown to black skin still on. In English it is known as whole black lentils or whole masoor lentils. Unlike the quick-cooking orange split masoor, the whole lentil holds its shape, has an earthy flavour and gives a thicker, heartier dal. In Indian homes sabut masoor is cooked as a simple tadka dal with onion, tomato, garlic and cumin, or as a slow-cooked Punjabi-style masoor with butter and cream. It also goes into soups, curries and khichdi, and can be soaked and sprouted for salads and chaat. Soak the lentils for a few hours before pressure cooking for softer, faster-cooking dal. This masoor dal is cleaned and packed by Ancy E-Retail Private Limited, and the seller states it has no added artificial colours or preservatives. Available in a 500 g pack.
