About Green dal
Green dal, often made from split green gram or green lentils, is a staple in South Asian cuisine, especially Indian vegetarian diets. Known for its earthy flavor and versatility, green dal is a rich source of plant-based protein, dietary fiber, folate, and essential minerals such as iron, magnesium, and potassium. It is typically cooked with spices like turmeric, cumin, and garlic, which enhance its flavor while offering additional health benefits. This nutrient-dense pulse supports heart health, aids digestion, and helps maintain steady energy levels. Gluten-free and low in fat, green dal is an excellent option for weight management and cholesterol control. However, if prepared with excessive oils or served alongside refined carbohydrates, its health benefits may be diminished. Commonly enjoyed as a soup, curry, or dip, green dal is an integral part of wholesome, balanced meals across the Indian subcontinent.
