Vatana Green

Vatana Green — Whole Dried Green Peas | 4 lb, 8 lb & 55 lb

Vatana Green (whole dried green peas) are a beloved ingredient in South Asian street food and home cooking. Hearty and full of earthy flavour, they are the star of classic dishes like ragda pattice and matar curry, and a staple in Gujarati and Mumbai-style chaat. Dried whole green peas hold their shape well after soaking and cooking — giving a satisfying, chunky texture to curries and street food preparations. Available in retail and bulk sizes.

Culinary Uses:

• Ragda — the classic Mumbai street food base for ragda pattice, sev puri, and pani puri topping
• Matar curry and green pea masala
• Chaat toppings and street food recipes
• Sprouted green pea salads and snacks
• Soups and mixed legume dishes
• Gujarati vatana nu shaak — dry spiced green pea curry

How to Use: Soak overnight in cold water (8–12 hours), drain, and rinse before cooking. Pressure cook until completely tender. For ragda, cook until soft enough to mash slightly at the edges while still holding shape.

• 4 lb — $3.99
• 8 lb — $8.99
• 55 lb — $62.99

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place in an airtight container. Keeps well for up to 12 months.
