Natco Mung Dal Washed 1kg, labelled Mung Dal Yellow on the pack, is a dried pulse made from split mung beans with their green skins removed. Also called yellow moong dal or skinless split green gram, it has pale yellow pieces that soften during cooking. Unlike whole green mung beans or skin-on moong dal chilka, this washed form creates a smoother finish, making it useful for dal tadka, vegetable khichdi, soups and savoury chilla. The 1kg pack is a practical cupboard size for regular home cooking.
Yellow moong's gentle flavour makes it an adaptable base for different seasonings. Simmer with ginger and turmeric for a simple dal, then add the fragrance of cumin and garlic in a finishing tadka. The split beans can break down as they cook, helping to thicken the liquid into a creamy consistency without the texture of green skins. Use more liquid for a looser dal to serve over rice, or simmer further for a thicker accompaniment to chapati.
The same pulse can be cooked with rice and vegetables for soft khichdi, blended into cooked soups, or soaked and ground into a batter for moong dal chilla. Rinse and check the dal before preparation, follow the instructions on the current pack, and cook until tender. Adjust water and cooking time to suit your recipe. Washed describes the prepared skinless form of the bean; it does not mean the dried dal is ready to eat.
