Top Op Yellow Peas 2Kg
Description
These vibrant, globe-shaped legumes known as Vatana in many Indian regions are whole dried yellow peas. This pack is a kitchen staple for those who enjoy hearty, rustic textures, as whole yellow peas maintain their shape and offer a satisfying bite that split peas often lose.
Culinary Versatility Whole yellow peas are the star ingredient in Ragda, the thick pea curry served with Pattice or inside Pani Puri. They are also used to make Ghugni, a popular street food snack in Eastern India. Beyond traditional Indian recipes, they are perfect for classic British Pease Pudding or thick, traditional Yellow Pea Soups with ham hocks. Their mild, slightly sweet, and earthy flavour makes them an excellent canvas for bold spices.
Pro-Tips Because these are whole peas with their outer skin intact, soaking for 8–12 hours (overnight) is essential for even cooking. Adding a tiny pinch of baking soda to the soaking water can help soften the tough skins. When cooking, they pair beautifully with cumin, turmeric, and dry mango powder (amchur). For street-food style Ragda, cook them until they are soft but still holding their round shape, then lightly mash a few to thicken the gravy naturally.
Nutritional Profile Whole yellow peas are an outstanding source of Plant-Based Protein and are exceptionally high in Dietary Fiber, which helps regulate blood sugar and supports long-term satiety. They are naturally low in fat and packed with essential minerals like Potassium, Iron, and Phosphorus, making them a highly nutritious and economical choice for a balanced diet.
Storage and Care Store in a cool, dry place. Given the large size, it is best to transfer the peas to an airtight container once the bag is opened. This keeps the peas protected from moisture and ensures they remain fresh and flavourful. In a dark, dry pantry, whole yellow peas have an excellent shelf life and can be stored for over a year without losing their nutritional quality.
