Black gram, also known as chilki urad dahl, is a pulse. The form described here is split, dried and raw, with part of the seed coat retained. It mainly provides carbohydrate and protein, with little fat. Per 100g, it contains 43g of carbohydrate, 26g of protein, 1.4g of fat and 132µg of folate.
Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues, while folate is needed for normal cell division and blood cell formation. These figures refer to the dried pulse before cooking. Cooking with water changes its weight and therefore the nutrient amounts per 100g of cooked dahl. Added salt or fat will also affect the final dish. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
