Mung beans, also known as green gram, are a legume widely used in Asia. The small green Mung bean is skinned and split to create this flat yellow Mung Dahl.  This premium Mung Dahl is Certified Organic and is grown and processed without any artificial inputs. It has no added preservatives and is non-GMO. When cooked Mung Dahl has a soft golden colour and a subtle sweet flavour. With no need to pre-soak and quick to prepare; they are great in salads and burgers, or can easily be cooked a little more to a lush creamy consistency perfect for traditional Indian recipes.

How to Use:

As Mung Dahl cooks much more quickly than whole lentils, it is not necessary to pre-soak before cooking. Uncooked Mung Dahl can be well rinsed and then added directly to curries and hotpots, simmering for 20-25 minutes or until soft. Perfect for traditional Indian Dahl’s and thick lentil soups; cook with spices and vegetables, adding water or stock as needed, till creamy and luscious – about 25-30 minutes.

To pre-cook lentils, rinse thoroughly before bringing to boil in a pot of water at a ratio of 1:3. Let boil for 2-3 minutes, before reducing to a simmer for a further 15-20 minutes or until soft but still intact. Cooked lentils can be added whole to salads and wraps; made into irresistible vegan lentil burgers with besan flour, spices and fresh herbs; or pureed to thicken savoury dishes.
