About this item

Creamy beans for lobia curry. Nitra Black Eye Beans, known in Hindi as lobia or chawli, are creamy white beans with a small black eye.

Why cooks choose it

They cook quicker than most beans and turn soft and creamy, drinking in a tomato-onion masala for a rich lobia curry. The same beans work in brothy vegetable stews, soups and cold bean salads with herbs and lemon.

What to cook with it

  • Lobia curry
  • Black-eyed pea vegetable stew
  • Bean salad with herbs
  • Lobia soup

How to cook

Soak for 4 to 6 hours or overnight. Pressure-cook with fresh water and salt for 3 to 4 whistles, then simmer in your masala for 10 minutes so the beans absorb the flavour.

Pack sizes

Available in 500 g and 1 kg packs.

Storage

Keep in an airtight container in a cool, dry cupboard.

Put it to work in Lobia Curry, then explore the rest of our pulses and lentils range. Order on Amazon.ae, or message us on WhatsApp for delivery in the UAE.
