Lobiya

Description

Lobiya known in different parts of India as chawli, alasandalu or karamani is the black-eyed pea that has quietly fed generations across nearly every Indian region, from Punjabi lobia curry to South Indian sundal.
Hariom Lobiya offers premium-quality black-eyed peas, recognisable by their creamy white body and the distinctive dark "eye," with a mild, nutty flavour and a tender texture once cooked that holds together well in curries and salads alike.

Among legumes, lobiya stands out for its relatively quick cooking time compared to other dried beans, it doesn't always require the lengthy overnight soak that rajma or kabuli chana demand. It delivers solid plant-based protein and dietary fibre, along with potassium, magnesium, and folate, making it a practical, nutrient-dense addition to vegetarian and vegan meal planning. Its versatility across regional Indian cuisines is part of what makes it such an enduringly popular pulse.
