About Cooked black chana
Cooked Black Chana, also known as Kala Chana, is a versatile legume commonly used in South Asian and Middle Eastern cuisines. These small, dark-brown chickpeas are rich in protein, dietary fiber, and essential vitamins like B6 and folate. They also contain important minerals such as iron, potassium, and magnesium, which support heart health and energy levels. A staple in vegetarian and vegan diets, Black Chana is naturally low in fat and cholesterol while providing a sustained source of complex carbohydrates. Its low glycemic index makes it ideal for controlling blood sugar levels. Typically prepared in curries, salads, or stir-fries, it absorbs spices and flavors beautifully, offering both nutrition and taste. While highly nutritious, moderation is key as excessive portions may lead to bloating due to its fiber content.
