Description

Moth Dal Available in 500g packs.

Moth Dal is premium split moth bean (Vigna aconitifolia), one of India's most ancient, drought-resistant, and nutritionally powerful pulses. Small, brown, and dense with earthy flavour, Moth Dal is a pulse that has fed India's toughest climates and most demanding lives for thousands of years and for good reason. It is among the most protein-rich, mineral-dense, and fiber-packed dals in the Indian pantry.

Known as Matki in Maharashtra and Moth Dal across Rajasthan, Gujarat, and North India, this humble but extraordinarily nutritious pulse is the backbone of Rajasthan's culinary identity, most famously in the iconic Moth Dal ki Sabzi and the beloved Misal Pav of Maharashtra, where sprouted matki is the star ingredient. As a sprouted pulse, Moth Dal / Matki is one of the most enzyme-rich, bioavailable, and digestible foods available, a raw superfood consumed widely for fitness, weight management, and gut health.

Nutritionally, Moth Dal stands apart. It delivers exceptionally high plant protein (22–23g per 100g raw), outstanding dietary fibre, and is one of the richest dal sources of calcium and zinc — making it uniquely valuable for bone strength, immune function, and growth. Its iron content supports healthy blood formation. Potassium and magnesium support heart health and blood pressure regulation. Folate makes it nourishing for pregnancy. Its low glycaemic index makes it suitable for diabetic and weight-management diets. And unlike many heavier dals, Moth Dal, when sprouted, becomes remarkably light, easy to digest, and packed with living enzymes and vitamin C, amplifying its already impressive nutritional profile.

Since 1965, Angur has been bringing the finest toor dal from the fields of Gujarat to kitchens across the country, growing into a name trusted nationwide as "Guniyal Naari ni Ek Matra Pasand." Today, that same legacy of quality and genuine flavour lives on in every Angur product from the very toor dal we started with to dals like Moth Dal.
