SAIRAS Urid Dal Chilka | Split urad beans with skin

Culinary profile

Urid Dal Chilka are split urad beans (Vigna mungo) that have retained their characteristic dark skin. Compared to the peeled variety, this dal offers a deeper, earthier aroma and a pleasantly firm texture. It is a cornerstone of North Indian cuisine and is prized for its creaminess.

Uses & Recipes

Ideal for preparing tarka dal, hearty stews, or as a side dish. Before use, the dal should be thoroughly washed and soaked for about 30–60 minutes. It pairs perfectly with ginger, garlic, and strong spices such as cumin and hing.
