Cholar Dal (Bengal Gram)~500 Gm

Product Overview

Our Cholar Dal is sourced from the finest harvests and meticulously processed to ensure each grain is uniform, clean, and free from impurities. Unlike other lentils that soften completely, Cholar Dal retains its shape and bite when cooked, making it the preferred choice for festive dishes and high-protein meals. This 500g pack is ideally sized to provide multiple nutritious servings for your family.
