About Bori

Bori, dried lentil nuggets, hail from Indian cuisine and are predominantly used in Northern and Eastern regions of the country. These small, sun-dried pieces are crafted from lentil paste, often seasoned with spices, and are a staple in traditional dishes. A storehouse of plant-based protein and dietary fiber, Bori supports digestion while adding a distinct texture and flavor to meals. Rich in nutrients like iron, folate, and magnesium, they contribute to overall health when consumed in moderation. However, their dried nature can slightly increase sodium content based on preparation methods, making mindful usage essential. Versatile and shelf-stable, Bori can be added to curries, vegetable stir-fries, or soups for a delicious nutritional boost while celebrating the heritage of Indian cooking.
