Heera Green Channa

Heera Green Channa – Premium Dried Green Chickpeas

A lesser-known gem of South Asian cooking. Heera Green Channa are dried whole green chickpeas — smaller and nuttier than white kabuli chana, with a distinctive earthy flavour and firm texture that makes them a standout ingredient in street food snacks, curries, and sprouted salads.

Why Choose Heera Green Channa?

• Unique earthy, nutty flavour — more complex and robust than standard white chickpeas
• Excellent source of plant protein — a nutritious staple for vegetarian and vegan diets
• High in dietary fibre — supports digestive health and sustained fullness
• Rich in iron, zinc, and B vitamins — contributes to energy and immune health
• Great for sprouting — soak and sprout for a fresh, crunchy, nutrient-packed addition to salads

How to Cook Green Channa

Soak overnight in plenty of cold water, then drain and rinse. Pressure cook for 15–20 minutes or simmer for 60–75 minutes until tender. Use in a spiced channa curry with tomatoes, onions, and warming masala, or toss with chaat masala, lemon, and fresh coriander for a quick, flavourful snack. Alternatively, sprout soaked green channa over 2–3 days for a nutritious raw addition to salads and chaats.
