Black Urad Dal – Whole Black Gram for Rich, Creamy Indian Dishes

Discover the depth and comfort of authentic Indian cuisine with our Black Urad Dal (Whole Black Gram) — a staple pulse in South Asian cooking, especially loved for its use in slow-cooked dals and hearty, flavourful curries. Popular across UK households seeking traditional lentil dishes, black urad adds richness and texture to every meal.

Taste & Texture

Black urad dal has a dense, creamy texture when cooked slowly and a deep, earthy flavour that intensifies with spices. Its black outer skin adds both colour and bite, making it a standout in slow-simmered dishes like dal makhani.

How to Use

Essential in many Indian and Pakistani recipes:

• Dal Makhani and creamy lentil curries
• Tempered lentils with garlic, cumin, and ghee
• South Indian dishes like idli batter (when mixed with rice)
• Side dishes for naan, roti, or basmati rice

Soak overnight and simmer until soft, or pressure cook for faster results.

Quality & Storage

Sourced for size, consistency, and cooking performance, our black urad dal is cleaned and packed to maintain freshness. Store in a cool, dry place in an airtight container. Once cooked, refrigerate and consume within 2–3 days.
