Annam Red Split Lentils, 500gm, are high-quality lentils that have been hulled and split for quick and easy cooking. Also known as Masoor Dal in South Asian cuisine, these lentils are a staple ingredient widely used in soups, stews, curries, and salads. Red split lentils cook faster than whole lentils and become soft and mushy when boiled, making them perfect for making creamy dals and purees. They are naturally rich in protein, dietary fiber, iron, and other essential nutrients, making them a healthy option for vegetarian and vegan diets. Annam Red Split Lentils do not require soaking before cooking and have a mild, earthy flavor that blends well with a variety of spices and vegetables. The 500 gram pack is convenient for household use and helps in preparing nutritious meals quickly. Store in a cool, dry place for best results.
