Natco Urad Gota Whole - 500g, labelled Urid Gotta on the pack, is dried whole black gram with the dark outer skin removed. The pale, peeled beans are also known as white urad gota and remain whole rather than split. Use this 500g pack for soaking and grinding into idli, dosa or medu vada batter, or cook the beans until tender for a mild urad dish. This is a dry ingredient for preparation and cooking, not a ready-made batter or ready-to-eat dal.
The skinless whole format is useful for recipes that call specifically for urad gota rather than skin-on urad beans or split washed urad. After soaking, the beans can be ground into a smooth paste for a range of South Indian-style dishes. Their mild flavour works with rice in batters and with ginger, cumin or garlic in cooked preparations. The 500g pack lets you measure out the quantity required for your recipe and keep the remaining dry beans tightly sealed.
Sort through the beans and rinse thoroughly before preparation. Follow the current pack instructions and your chosen recipe for soaking, then drain before grinding or cooking as directed. For batter, add water gradually while grinding so you can control the consistency; idli, dosa and vada recipes call for different textures and proportions. Where fermentation is required, follow the recipe's handling and temperature guidance rather than relying on a fixed time alone. For cooked urad dishes, use fresh water and cook until the beans are fully tender. Cook prepared batters thoroughly before serving.
