Retail – HEERA RED KIDNEY BEANS – 2kg

Description

Heera Red Kidney Beans 2kg, a store cupboard staple for hearty, protein rich cooking.

This is a 2kg pack of dried red kidney beans from Heera, a familiar name in South Asian kitchens across the UK. 2kg is a single retail pack of the raw dried pulse rather than a tin, so you rehydrate and cook the beans yourself. Expect deep red skins and creamy centres that hold their shape in slow cooked dishes.

Key Features

• Large 2kg pack that works out cheaper per portion than tinned beans, handy for batch cooking
• Dried pulse with a long ambient shelf life, so you cook only what you need
• A good source of plant protein and fibre for meat free menus
• Versatile across rajma, chilli con carne, bean salads, soups and stews

Uses

and Serving: Rinse the beans, then soak in cold water for at least eight hours or overnight. Drain, cover with fresh water and boil hard for ten minutes, then simmer until fully tender, usually forty five to sixty minutes. Kidney beans must be boiled hard to destroy the natural toxin they contain, so never cook them from raw in a slow cooker alone.

Storage

Keep the dry beans in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Once cooked, keep chilled and use within a couple of days, or freeze.
