Mooli Singra Mongra

🥬 Organic Mooli Singra (Mongra) - The Delicate Radish Pods of North India

Crisp, tender, and delightfully peppery 🌱 - Mooli Singra, also known as Mongra (मूली सिंगरा / मोंगरा), is a rare seasonal delicacy made from the young seed pods of the radish plant. Sourced from our certified organic farmer on the Haryana-Rajasthan border, this winter specialty is harvested at peak tenderness for maximum crunch and flavor.

🌿 A Forgotten Winter Treasure from the Radish Fields

Most people know radish for its white roots, but few have tasted its delicate green pods. Mooli Singra grows after the radish plant flowers. Instead of letting the plant mature fully for seeds, the young pods are harvested when they are slender, juicy, and mildly pungent.

In rural Haryana and Rajasthan, Mongra is cherished as a seasonal treat as:

• 🍳 Stir-fried with mustard oil and spices
• 🥗 Added to fresh salads
• 🥔 Lightly sautéed with potatoes

Our Singra is:
✔️ 100% certified organic
✔️ Harvested young for tenderness
✔️ Naturally grown without chemical sprays
✔️ Sourced directly from a trusted border-region farmer

It carries the clean, earthy sharpness of radish, but in a far more elegant, snackable form.
