Red Lentils Whole Skin Off (Football) – Whole Red Lentils for Dals & Curries

Red Lentils Whole Skin Off (Football) are whole red lentils with the outer skin removed while the lentil remains whole rather than split. Also known as Red Football Lentils, Football Lentils, Masoor Gota and whole skin-off red lentils, they have a distinctive rounded shape and reddish-orange colour.

With their mild, earthy flavour and versatile texture, red football lentils are a popular ingredient for dal, curries, soups and hearty stews. Their whole form makes them a useful alternative to conventional split red lentils when you want a more intact lentil in your cooking. They are widely used in Indian, South Asian and Middle Eastern cooking, as well as modern soups and one-pot dishes.
