Dal lentils 900 grams
Dal in Sanskrit, an ancient Indo-Aryan language, means “to split.” Today, in Hindi, dal can refer to certain dried lentils, beans, or peas in split or whole form or to the dish made from them—a preparation that some researchers date back as far as 800–300 B.C. in South Asia.
Dhal is an excellent source of iron and fibre, and a good source of protein, for vegetarians. Red lentil dahl is full of flavour and this version is also packed with vegetables, making it the perfect healthy comfort food.
Highly nutritious. Lentils are often overlooked, even though they're an inexpensive way of getting a wide variety of nutrients. For example, they're packed with B vitamins, magnesium, zinc, and potassium. Lentils are made up of more than 25% protein, which makes them an excellent meat alternative.
