Black Broken Urad (கருப்பு உடைத்த உளுந்து)

Broken black urad dal, also known as split black gram or black lentils, is a type of pulse widely used in Indian cuisine. It is derived from whole black urad dal by splitting it into halves, resulting in smaller pieces with a black exterior and creamy white interior. Broken black urad dal has a rich, earthy flavor and a creamy texture when cooked. It is a good source of protein, fiber, and various nutrients, making it a nutritious addition to vegetarian and vegan diets. It is commonly used in dishes like dal, soups, stews, and savory pancakes (dosa) in Indian cooking.
