Description:
Toor dal oily, also known as oily toor dal, refers to split pigeon peas (toor dal) that have a higher fat content due to the presence of natural oils in the dal. This variation of toor dal retains more of its natural oils during processing, which gives it a richer texture and slightly different cooking characteristics compared to regular toor dal.
In culinary terms, oily toor dal may require slightly different cooking techniques to achieve the desired consistency and flavor in dishes such as dal tadka or sambar. It offers a unique nutty taste and creamy texture when cooked, making it a preferred choice for those who enjoy a richer dal experience.
