About Pasi paruppu

Pasi Paruppu, commonly known as moong dal, is a type of lentil widely used in South Asian cuisine, particularly Indian cooking. Derived from green gram that has been hulled and split, Pasi Paruppu is pale yellow and showcases a mild, earthy flavor. It serves as a versatile ingredient in soups, dal curries, porridges, and even desserts. Packed with nutrients, it is a rich source of plant-based protein, dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals like magnesium and potassium, making it beneficial for heart health, digestion, and weight management. Its low-fat content and easy digestibility make it ideal for all age groups and are often recommended in diets for its nourishing qualities. However, moderation is key, as overconsumption or improper preparation can reduce mineral absorption due to its natural antinutrient content. Overall, Pasi Paruppu stands out as a wholesome and essential ingredient in traditional and healthy cooking.
