Oily Toor Dal for Rich Dal Tadka, Sambar and Traditional South Indian Cooking

Natco Toor Dal Oily - 500g is a premium quality oily toor dal (split pigeon peas) from Natco, one of the UK's most trusted South Asian grocery brands. Coated with a light layer of edible oil to preserve freshness and enhance flavour, this is the traditional variety preferred by many South Indian households for its richer taste and longer shelf life.

Why Choose Natco Toor Dal Oily?

The light oil coating on Natco's toor dal preserves the natural freshness of the pigeon peas and imparts a subtle richness to the cooked dal. Simply rinse thoroughly before cooking to remove the oil. It cooks to a smooth, creamy consistency and absorbs spices and tamarind beautifully — ideal for sambar, dal tadka, and rasam.

Serving Suggestions

• Rinse well, then cook with tamarind, tomato, and sambar powder for an authentic South Indian sambar
• Temper with cumin, garlic, and dried red chilli for a classic dal tadka
• Simmer with tomato and spices for a light, nourishing rasam
• Serve with steamed rice and ghee for a wholesome everyday meal
