Urid dal is best known as the key ingredient in dal makhani, the rich, slow-cooked lentil dish found in Indian home cooking and restaurants alike. Heera Urid Dall Washed 2kg is a pack of split, skinned urid lentils, sometimes called black gram, cleaned and ready to cook. This washed variety has had the black outer skin removed, leaving pale, creamy lentils that cook down to a soft, creamy texture. It is the type of dal used for dal makhani and other thick, spiced lentil curries served with rice or roti. Urid dal is also ground into batter for idli and dosa, and used to make vada and papad in South Indian cooking. Before cooking, rinse the lentils well and soak them for a few hours to help them cook evenly and reduce cooking time. Once cooked, urid dal can be simmered gently with butter, cream or ghee for a classic dal makhani finish, or left plainer for a simpler side dish. Store the pack in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, keep the lentils in an airtight container to maintain their quality, and use within a reasonable time for the best texture and flavour when cooked.
