SCHANI Moong Split Chilka 500g

"Discover the wholesome versatility of Schani Moong Split Chilka 500g, a traditional Indian pulse made from split green mung beans with their natural outer skins retained.
Also known as moong dal chilka, these lentils are a popular ingredient in Indian households, appreciated for their mild, earthy flavour, delicate nutty notes, and satisfying texture.
Unlike yellow moong dal, which has its outer skin removed, moong split chilka retains its green husk. This gives the lentils their distinctive green-and-yellow appearance and adds texture to traditional dishes.
Perfect for preparing comforting dals, fragrant khichdi, hearty soups, and vegetable stews, Schani Moong Split Chilka absorbs aromatic spices beautifully while softening during cooking.
With naturally occurring plant-based protein and dietary fibre, these split mung beans are a versatile choice for vegetarian and vegan meals.

"Schani Moong Split Chilka is easy to incorporate into a variety of traditional Indian dishes.
For a comforting moong dal chilka tadka, rinse the lentils thoroughly under cold running water. Place them in a saucepan with fresh water and a little turmeric, then simmer for approximately 25–35 minutes, or until tender.
In a separate pan, heat a little oil or ghee and add cumin seeds. Once fragrant, stir in finely chopped onions, garlic, ginger, and green chillies. Add chopped tomatoes, coriander powder, and a pinch of garam masala, then cook until aromatic.
Combine the tempering with the cooked lentils and simmer briefly to allow the flavours to blend.
Serve with steamed basmati rice, chapati, or warm naan.
For a traditional moong dal khichdi, cook the split mung beans with rice, turmeric, cumin, and vegetables until soft and comforting.
You can also add them to soups, vegetable stews, or one-pot meals for a satisfying texture.
Cooking tip: Split mung beans with husk generally cook faster than whole mung beans and do not always require soaking. Rinse thoroughly before cooking and adjust the water quantity to achieve your preferred consistency."
