No — Dal Palak is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). Contains only basic culinary ingredients (pulses, vegetables, spices, oil, salt) and no industrial additives, refined syrups, artificial sweeteners, flavourings, emulsifiers, or other markers of ultra-processing.
Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrial formulations made with ingredients and additives you wouldn't find in a home kitchen — such as emulsifiers, artificial flavourings, colourings and modified starches. The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
Scan any barcode — or photograph the ingredients label — with the free Nomi app for iOS and Android. You'll get an instant ultra-processed verdict with every ingredient explained in plain English.
