Rinse kandi pappu thoroughly 2–3 times under clean water. Soak for 20–30 minutes for softer, faster cooking if desired. Pressure cook with water in a 1:3 ratio for 3–4 whistles or until soft. Temper with oil or ghee, spices and vegetables to prepare sambar, dal or other recipes.

Kandi pappu, also called toor dal or pigeon pea, is widely used to prepare sambar, traditional dals, pappu, rasam, and chutney bases. It provides a creamy texture and mild nutty flavour, making it perfect for everyday South Indian meals while adding protein and fibre to your diet.

Yes, kandi pappu and toor dal are the same lentil, also known as pigeon pea. “Kandi pappu” is the Telugu name commonly used in Andhra and Telangana, while “toor dal” is widely used across India. Both refer to the same staple pulse used in sambar and dals.

Kandi pappu is considered very good for health because it is rich in plant-based protein, dietary fibre, and essential nutrients. Regular consumption can support muscle repair, better digestion, and sustained energy. When cooked with minimal oil and plenty of vegetables, it fits well into a balanced daily diet.

Kandi pappu, or toor dal, typically contains around 20–22 grams of protein per 100 grams of raw lentils. This makes it an excellent protein source for vegetarians and families looking to increase daily protein intake through traditional dishes like sambar, dal, and pappu without relying on animal-based foods.

Soaking kandi pappu is optional but recommended. Rinsing and soaking for 20–30 minutes helps reduce cooking time and can make the dal softer and easier to digest. If you are using a pressure cooker, soaking is helpful but not mandatory; adjust whistles and water quantity as needed.
