Horse gram (kulthi / hurali)

कुलथी

Dals & Pulses

Kulthi dal in the north, hurali saaru in Karnataka. Earthy and assertive.

What to know

Very hard, and needs a long soak and a long pressure-cook. The cooking water is used, not thrown — it carries most of the flavour.

Measures

  • 1 cup ≈ 160 g

Cups here are the Indian 200 ml cup, not the 240 ml US cup — a common reason a recipe does not work. Weigh where you can; the grams are the figure we cook to.
