What it is

Heera is the main brand of P&B (Foods) Ltd, a Bradford company that describes itself as one of the largest independent wholesale distributors of Asian foods across Britain and Europe.

Urad gota is ulundhu with the black skin taken off and the seed left whole. Whole white urad grinds up lighter and holds more air than the split kind, which is what makes idli soft and vadai fluffy. Two kilos keeps a family in batter for a good few weeks. Choosing between urad? Gota (whole, skinless) for batter and vadai; split white for tempering and podi; whole black for dal makhani.

Tip: Grind it in cold water from the fridge. A warm grinder gives flat batter.
