What it is

Heera is the main brand of P&B (Foods) Ltd of Bradford, which calls itself one of the largest independent wholesale distributors of Asian foods in Britain and Europe. This bag is masoor dal: red lentils with the brown skins taken off and split, so they look orange-pink in the pack.

They need no soaking and collapse into a smooth, pale yellow dal in about 20 minutes. Choosing between dals? Masoor for speed and a smooth texture; Heera Toor Dal Plain 2kg for sambar; Heera Moong Dal Washed 2kg for a lighter dal and ven pongal.

Tip: Make the tempering of cumin, garlic and dried chilli last, and pour it over the dal while it is still hissing.

Goes well with: Heera Cumin (Jeera) Whole Seeds, Heera Chilli Whole Long, LG Asafoetida (Hing) Cake
