Mother's Bites Kala Chana Sprout 200g
Description
Power your day with a protein-rich heritage grain using Mother's Bites Kala Chana Sprouts. These sprouted brown chickpeas (Desi Chana) are a nutritional step up from the dry version. The sprouting process "activates" the legume, breaking down complex starches and making the iron and protein much more accessible to your body. They offer a firm, nutty bite and a deep, earthy flavour that sets them apart from lighter sprouts.
Culinary Versatility
Mother's Bites Kala Chana Sprouts are the gold standard for sustaining energy. This pack is ideally suited for making a robust Kala Chana Chaat with chopped onions and lime, or adding texture to a traditional Maharashtrian Missal. Unlike delicate green mung sprouts, these hold their shape exceptionally well when pressure-cooked or simmered in spicy gravies, providing a satisfying, meat-like texture for vegetarian meals.
Pro-Tip: To soften the outer skin while keeping the sprout intact, steam them for 5–7 minutes before adding them to salads. If you are using them in a curry, sauté them in a little bit of oil with ginger and garlic first; this "toasts" the sprout and intensifies the nutty flavour before the liquids are added.
Nutritional Benefits
A 100g serving provides approximately 140-160kcal. Kala Chana is naturally high in Fibre and Plant-based Protein. The sprouting process specifically boosts the Vitamin C and Antioxidant content, while the high iron levels make it a fantastic blood-building food. Because they have a low glycaemic index, they provide a slow, steady release of energy that keeps you full for longer.
Storage & Care
Keep refrigerated (2°C–5°C). Sprouts are living foods that require a bit of air circulation; store them in a container that isn't completely airtight to prevent moisture build-up. For maximum crispness and nutritional potency, consume within 2–3 days. Always give them a quick rinse in cold water before cooking or eating raw.
