Our organic canned Vaal Dhal is inspired by the cuisine of Gujarat in northern India but we use only British-grown fava beans, cooked with a blend of mild and aromatic spices. Needing just a little heat and a good stir our dhal is ready to eat as a satisfying side dish or can be cooked with other ingredients to create a more substantial curry. Try adding water or stock for a curry soup.
Also available as part of our Big Vegan Box
Vaal Dhal is ready to eat and just requires a good stir and a little heat.

More than just dhal...

Delicious, nutritious and good for the soil, fava beans are a variety of broad bean, Vicia faba, left to ripen and dry before harvest. They’re also known as field beans, horse beans, Windsor beans or ful.
Suitable for vegans and vegetarians
When I'm hungry for lunch, or dinner, or just home-alone, and urgently want something that's nutritious, filling and tasty to eat, this is my go-to food. A tray of them in the larder is essential for daily use and for a survival store. It's a meal for one, or add a bit of water to make 2 bowls of soup. Add some creamed coconut or coconut oil to make it richer. Perfect!
Really tasty and convenient. If you have access to a microwave and a bowl, this couldn't be easier. So much healthier than a sandwich!
Great when needing something quick to cook to I also use these as the base of a curry, excellent flavours.
Delicious
A great quick, healthy lunch that tastes great too!

An amazing recipe book that highlights ancient beans and grains from the UK that can be used to make delicious food. The beautiful illustrations and design are a bonus!
What a beautiful, brilliant book of delicious recipes, from classics with a twist, to creatively playful culinary experiments, healthy eating has rarely felt so exciting and satisfying. Suffused throughout with the deep love of land and produce, earthy food culture and the most precious of convivialities the communing of dining together. The book is already a favourite in our household and will no doubt end up as one of those cookery books affectionately well thumbed and adorned with flamboyant spatterings of ingredients!
I pre ordered so got my copy early, bought as a Christmas present for my daughter. It really is a delight to read and look through, so much so to de-risk making the present one look “thumb’d” I’m ordering a second for ourselves. The recipe in this pic comes highly recommended.
A book full of wholesome, locally sourced food. Good for you and good for the environment. Hodmedod's quality of produce and quality of spirit is what Britain is about and this incredible book will be well placed on any home cooking shelf and a welcomed gift to friends and family. Well done guys!
Another excellent Hodmedods lentil supporting British Farming. So tasty, great to use in curry amongst a host of other dishes.
