sunset red masoor dal | essentials 750g

wimmera | victoria

Our sunset red masoor dal is a split Australian baby lentil which has been hulled (skin removed). Masoor is the most common dal in India, and this is our home grown version; cultivated by Peter Blair and his crew of farmers in Victoria.

It’s red because it’s fast like a racing car, vroom vroom! And it’s easy…like a Sunday morning!

To cook, add dal to 3 times their volume of cold water (e.g. 1 cup of lentils to 3 cups of water), bring to a simmer and it will be ready in 12 minutes. There is no need to pre-soak, no need to strain – it will be nestled in a puddle of golden syrupy water; the grains will burst, be soft, earthy and sweet.

Great for classic Indian cooking, winter soups and braises, or light summer salads.
