Red Cow Eyed Peas / Thatta Payar

Description

Red cowpeas, called thatta payar, are a nourishing legume long loved in South Indian home cooking. They are grown on chemical-free farms and cleaned carefully to remain adulteration-free. Cowpeas are a good source of plant protein, dietary fibre, folate and iron, supporting energy and everyday wellbeing. Their fibre content makes them filling and helpful for steady, slow-release energy. They cook into comforting kuzhambu, poriyal, usili and the festive sundal. Soaked and boiled, they add protein and bite to mixed-vegetable dishes and salads. Their mild, earthy flavour pairs well with coconut, curry leaves and South Indian spices. As a plant protein, they are an easy way to make vegetarian meals more satisfying. Kept airtight and dry, they store well for months.
