Black Matpe also known as Urad Dal or Black Gram, is a type of lentil or pulse widely used in Indian cuisine. Black Matpe is small, black, and oval-shaped, with a white interior. It is a staple in Indian cooking and is used to make various dishes, including dal (lentil curry), idli, dosa, and vada. Urad dal is often ground into flour and used in the preparation of batters for fermented dishes. Black Matpe is a good source of protein, dietary fibre, iron, magnesium, potassium, and B vitamins. It provides essential nutrients for a balanced diet.
This is one of the smallest of the lentil family. Shiny black in color and easy to cook. Makes a beautiful garnish, also great in soups and salads. They look like caviar after cooking.
