What to know about Organic Tattva - Organic Red Rajma

Single-ingredient rajma with 20 g fibre per 100 g

Organic Tattva Organic Red Rajma is a 500 g pack of dried red kidney beans. The ingredient list has one item, Organic Red Rajma, with no percentage because it is the whole pack. It is bought by home cooks who want an organic, unpolished pulse for curries and simmered dishes.

Per 100 g of dry beans you get 391.71 kcal, 18.81 g protein, 20.04 g fibre and 65.34 g carbohydrate. Sugar is 1.96 g, all of it natural, with 0 g added sugar. Fat is 1.67 g, saturated fat 0.22 g and sodium 10.23 mg. The pack counts 100 g as a serve, so one pack is five serves.

The front promises protein, no additives and organic certification, and the single-item list agrees with the first two. The pack prints a Control Union certificate number for the organic claim. The retailer page goes further, with diabetes and antioxidant claims that the pack does not back with numbers. CleanPlate scores it CA2.

A 500 g pack is five 100 g servings, and every figure on the panel is for the dry bean. Rajma soaks up water as it cooks, so a bowl of cooked beans carries far fewer calories than the 392 kcal printed for 100 g dry.

It makes sense as a regular staple. You get 18.81 g protein and 20.04 g fibre per 100 g of dry beans, with almost no sodium, no added sugar and no additives. The real trade-off is energy: the dry bean is calorie-dense, so it is the dry weight you measure out that sets the calories, and what goes into the pot alongside it, such as oil, ghee or cream, can change the dish more than the beans do.

Rajma is a plant protein rather than a complete protein meal on its own, and it pairs with rice or roti in the usual way. No swap improves on a plain, single-ingredient pulse like this, so the practical advice is to cook it simply and watch the portion.

Why Organic Tattva - Organic Red Rajma scores CA2

Nutrition is a C: 18.81 g protein and 20.04 g fibre per 100 g are held back by 391.71 kcal. Ingredients are an A with one item and nothing added, and risk is a 2, driven by energy alone.

How we score →

01 Nutrition densityA to E

Adequate nutrient density

Protein: 18.8 g
Fibre: 20 g
Vitamins and minerals: Potassium
Energy: 392 kcal

01 Nutrition density: why C

Protein is 18.81 g per 100 g, about 4.8 g per 100 kcal, and fibre is 20.04 g. All the protein comes from the beans themselves, a legume protein source.

Energy is 391.71 kcal per 100 g, so the beans do not score higher than a C. Only potassium (136.54 mg) is declared among vitamins and minerals, so little else adds to the grade.

Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

02 Ingredient integrityA to E

Clean, minimally processed

Base: Organic Red Rajma
Sweeteners: None added
Additives: 0
Flagged: None

02 Ingredient integrity: why A

The list is a single item, Organic Red Rajma, with no additives, no flavours, no added fat and no sweetener. That is a full-marks ingredient list.

No label promise on the pack is hollow, so nothing costs ingredient points.

Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.

03 Load risk1 to 5

Low risk

Added sugar: 0 g
Sodium: 10.2 mg
Saturated fat: 0.22 g
Trans fat: 0.01 g

03 Load risk: why 2

Energy is the only real driver: 391.71 kcal per 100 g sets the risk at a 2. Sugar is 0 g added, saturated fat is 0.22 g, trans fat is 0.01 g and sodium is 10.23 mg, all very low.

Because the figures are for dry beans, the energy per cooked bowl is much lower than the panel suggests.

Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.
