Harischandra Ulundu Flour is 100% ulundu (black gram) flour, milled from the hulled white lentil and packed in 200g bags. It is the flour behind thosai, vadai and papadams.
Having the lentil ready ground saves the long soaking and grinding that these dishes usually need. The pack names the flour in Sinhala, Tamil and English.
