Fudco Toor Dal Unoily - 1.5kg, labelled Toordall Unoily on the pack, is dried split pigeon peas, also known as arhar dal or tuvar dal. The yellow split grains are an ingredient for cooking from scratch, rather than a ready-to-eat dish. This is the variety labelled unoily, distinct from Fudco toor dal sold as oily. The 1.5kg pack can be portioned out for everyday dals, vegetable sambars and rice-based meals.
Toor dal develops a soft texture as it cooks and can be mashed into a smooth, thick base for a tempering of cumin, garlic and chilli. Its mild, earthy flavour also works with the sharper taste of tamarind in sambar and dal-based rasam. Leave some grains intact for a textured dal, or cook and mash more thoroughly when you want a smoother consistency. The clearly identified split pigeon pea format helps you select the right pulse without confusing it with chana dal or yellow moong dal.
Sort through the dal and rinse thoroughly before cooking. Follow any soaking and preparation instructions on the current pack or in your chosen recipe, then simmer in sufficient water until fully tender. Stir occasionally as the dal thickens and add hot water as needed to prevent it catching. Mash to your preferred texture before adding the remaining ingredients and tempering. Cooking time varies with the method and whether the dal has been soaked, so judge readiness by tenderness rather than a fixed time.
