Featured Products

Chavli, or black eyed peas, is one of those ingredients that quietly sits in the kitchen without getting much attention. It’s not as popular as rajma or chole, but it’s used a lot, especially in Maharashtrian homes.
If you’ve had chavli usal before, you already know the taste. Simple, slightly coconut-based, and filling.
At Prakritii Organics, this chavli comes from farms where no chemical fertilisers or pesticides are used. It’s grown in a more natural way. For people already trying to switch to organic vegetables or looking for options like organic vegetables in Mumbai or organic vegetables in Pune, adding something like this just becomes part of the same habit.
It’s basic food, nothing fancy, but it does the job well.

Health Benefits & Nutrition

Chavli is quite filling and works well for regular meals. It has a good mix of protein and fibre, so you don’t feel hungry again too quickly.
It also contains things like iron and some basic nutrients your body needs daily. That’s probably why it’s been part of regular diets for a long time.
Energy-wise also, it feels steady. Not something that makes you feel heavy or too full, but still enough to keep you going.

How to Use & Storage

Chavli doesn’t take too much effort. You can soak it for a few hours or overnight, and then pressure cook it until soft.
Most people use it to make usal, but you can also use it in simple sabzi or even salads. Once cooked and cooled, it mixes well with onion, tomato, and lemon.
Some people also sprout it, though it’s not as common as moong or mataki.
For storage, just keep it in an airtight container in a dry place. It lasts long if stored properly.

FAQs

How long should I soak chavli before cooking?

2–3 hours is sufficient for most preparations. Overnight soaking (8 hours) produces better digestibility and a creamier texture in the cooked bean. Unlike heavier legumes, chavli does not require very long soaking times.

Is chavli suitable for pregnant women?

Yes — black eyed peas are one of the best plant-based sources of folate, which is essential for preventing neural tube defects during early pregnancy. They also provide iron, potassium, and protein — all nutritionally important during pregnancy.

Can I use chavli for sprouting?

Yes. Soak overnight and allow to sprout for 18–24 hours at room temperature. The sprouts are tender and mild, excellent raw in salads with lemon and salt, or lightly tossed in a pan with cumin and chillies.

What is the difference between chavli and mataki?

Both are popular Maharashtrian legumes but nutritionally and culinarily distinct. Chavli (black eyed peas) is lighter, creamier when cooked, and requires less soaking time. Mataki (moth beans) is smaller, firmer, and is the traditional pulse for misal pav. Mataki requires sprouting for authentic preparations; chavli does not.

Is organic chavli available for delivery across India?

Yes. Prakritii Organics delivers organic black eyed peas across Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Pune, and major cities throughout India with reliable doorstep delivery.
