KCS Punjabi Vadi - 400g is a jar of prepared pulse-based pieces, labelled Punjabi Wadi on the pictured pack. Vadi and wadi are alternative spellings of this cooking ingredient. Use the pieces in cooked potato dishes, vegetable curries and gravies for a substantial texture and savoury, spiced flavour. This is a prepared cooking ingredient, not loose whole pulses, plain dal or a ready-to-eat snack.
The formed pieces bring a different texture to a curry than whole beans or split dal. As they cook in a gravy, they soften and take on the surrounding sauce. Pair them with potatoes, gourds or mixed vegetables, adjusting your added seasonings to complement the product's existing flavour. Measure out the amount needed from the 400g jar and keep the remaining dry pieces tightly closed.
Follow the current pack instructions for preparation and thorough cooking, including whether frying, soaking or another preliminary step is required. Use a recipe intended for Punjabi vadi rather than applying whole-bean soaking or cooking times. Cook with sufficient liquid until the pieces are softened and cooked through, coordinating their cooking stages with the vegetables. Do not assume that a brief soak makes them ready to eat. Refer to the current pack for the exact pulse ingredients, spices and allergen warnings.
