About Kabuli chana

Kabuli Chana, commonly known as chickpeas or garbanzo beans, are nutrient-dense legumes widely used in Middle Eastern, Indian, and Mediterranean cuisines. These beige-colored pulses are rich in plant-based protein, dietary fiber, iron, and magnesium, making them an excellent choice for vegetarians and vegans. Kabuli Chana is also packed with folate and antioxidants, supporting heart health and digestion while helping to stabilize blood sugar levels. Low in fat, they’re a wholesome option for weight management. However, they are calorie-dense, so portion control is essential. Their mild nutty flavor makes them versatile in dishes like hummus, curries, salads, or roasted snacks. When dried, Kabuli Chana must be soaked and cooked thoroughly, as undercooked legumes can be hard to digest. Whether you're seeking sustained energy or adding bulk to a meal, Kabuli Chana is a wholesome addition to a balanced diet.
