Green Channa 2lb

Green Channa are rich in B-vitamins, which help your body use carbohydrates, protein and fat from food. Like other beans, hara channa is rich in both soluble and insoluble dietary fibre. The soluble fibre in the channa helps stabilise blood sugar levels, while still providing a steady supply of energy. PTI Green Channa also name as green chick peas. As the name suggests, they are dark green in colour and tender with pods. The cooked tender chana can be eaten raw as is, or in the form of a chaat. 

You can eat them fresh and raw but they are a little tough. I suggest boiling them or pan frying them for a couple minutes to get them a bit more tender. You can also throw the whole garbanzo bean pod (with shell) into boiling water and eat as a snack like edamame that is still in the pod.
