Discover the wholesome goodness of Mung Dal 1kg, available now at Al Modina Halal Food. Also known as "Moong Dal" or "Yellow Split Mung Beans," this lentil is a cornerstone of Asian cooking. It is easily recognizable by its small, oval shape and vibrant yellow color, achieved by husking (removing the green skin) and splitting the whole mung bean.
At Al Modina Halal Food, we prioritize quality and nutrition. Our Mung Dal is sourced from the finest crops, ensuring that every grain is clean, polished, and free from impurities. Whether you are cooking a simple weeknight dinner or preparing a festive feast, our premium lentils deliver the perfect texture and a sweet, nutty flavor that everyone loves.
Among the vast variety of pulses available, Mung Dal holds a special place for several reasons.
Mung Dal is widely regarded as the easiest lentil to digest. Unlike heavier beans like kidney beans or chickpeas which can cause bloating, Mung Dal is light on the stomach. This makes it the preferred choice for children, the elderly, and those recovering from illness. In Ayurveda, it is considered a "Tridoshic" food, meaning it balances all body types.
In today’s fast-paced world, convenience matters. Because it is split and skinless, Mung Dal 1kg cooks incredibly fast compared to other legumes. It does not require overnight soaking—just a quick rinse and 15-20 minutes on the stove is enough to break it down into a creamy consistency.
When cooked, Mung Dal breaks down completely, creating a naturally thick and velvety texture. This makes it perfect for soups and stews where you want richness without adding dairy or heavy fats.
A 1kg bag of Mung Dal is a versatile pantry essential that can be used in countless recipes.
This is the ultimate comfort dish.
Method: Boil the dal with turmeric and salt until soft.
The Tempering (Tadka): In a separate small pan, heat ghee or oil. Add cumin seeds, garlic, dried red chilies, and a pinch of asafoetida (hing). Pour this sizzling mixture over the boiled dal.
Serve: Enjoy with steamed Basmati rice or Jeera Rice for a meal that feels like a warm hug.
A harmonious blend of rice and lentils.
The Dish: Mung Dal and rice are cooked together with mild spices and vegetables.
Why it Works: The softness of the dal matches the rice perfectly, creating a porridge-like consistency that is incredibly nourishing. It is the go-to meal for rainy days or when you need a digestive reset.
Yes, lentils can be sweet!
Recipe: Soak the dal and grind it into a coarse paste. Roast it slowly in ghee until it turns golden brown and aromatic. Add sugar syrup, cardamom, and nuts.
Occasion: This rich, decadent dessert is a winter favorite in North India and Pakistan.
Snack Time: Soaked dal can be deep-fried and seasoned with salt and chaat masala to create a crunchy, savory snack that pairs perfectly with tea.
To get the best results from your Mung Dal 1kg:
Rinse Thoroughly: Wash the lentils in a bowl of water 3-4 times. Rub them gently between your fingers to remove any dust or excess starch. The water should run relatively clear.
Soaking (Optional): While not strictly necessary, soaking for 20 minutes reduces cooking time further and ensures even softer grains.
Storage: Keep the lentils in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Moisture is the enemy of dried pulses. If stored correctly, they can last for up to a year.
