Description

Chana Dal Available in 500g, 1kg, 5kg packs.

Angur Chana Dal is a good-quality split Bengal gram (Cicer arietinum) and one of the most nutritious, fiber-rich and versatile pulses in India. This golden yellow Dal is known as Chana Dal in North and West India, Kadalai Paruppu in Tamil Nadu, Kadala Parippu in Kerala, and Senaga Pappu in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, and has been a staple in Indian kitchens and Ayurvedic medicine for thousands of years.

Chana dal is a common dal eaten in its different regions for a variety of reasons. In Punjab and UP, it is cooked with whole spices and ghee and eaten as a delicious and nutritious dal. It is the essence of festive Chana Dal Halwa and Cholar Dal of Bengal and is part of their daily dal. It is used in making savoury snacks, Batata poha, and steamed dhokla batter in Maharashtra and Gujarat. In South India, it is used as a flavoring for tempering chutneys, rice dishes, and sambar. In Rajasthan, it is made with other lentils in a popular Rajasthani dish called Dal Baati Churma.

Angur's mechanical system ensures that all grains are free from contaminants, uniform and of certified quality, derived from excellent crops, processed without human interference, and packaged in an airtight, moisture-blocking way, which guarantees freshness and flavor. The dietary fiber in Chana Dal makes it one of the best dals for diabetes, and the low glycemic index makes it a good choice for people with high blood sugar levels. Plant protein is beneficial for muscle building and maintenance. It is also known for having an unusually high fiber content, which aids in maintaining good digestion, bowel health, and regulating cholesterol. High in iron, folate, and magnesium, it is a rich source of nutrients that are very nourishing to women, growing children, and anyone who wants to use it for wholesome daily nutrition.

Since 1965, Angur has been providing the best toor dal from Gujarat fields to kitchens all over the country and has established a reputation of "Guniyal Naari ni Ek Matra Pasand" all across the nation. Today, the same tradition of quality and true taste continues through each of the Angur products, from the original toor dal to dals such as Chana Dal.
