Sweet Sour Sprouted Mung Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Place all the beans, green pepper, onion and pimentos in a large mixing bowl. Add the oil and celery. In a saucepan, combine the vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper, and tomato soup. Bring to a boil and pour over the vegetables. Toss the mixture lightly with 2 forks. Do this several times as the mixture cools. Cover the bowl and refrigerate at least 4 hours before serving. The salad will be better if kept chilled 24 hours before serving. Drain and reserve liquid before serving; it will keep for several days. The reserved liquid can be poured over the leftovers. Add more sugar, if desired.

Steps:

• Mix the chili, onion, tomato, lemon juice, sugar (if using), salt and pepper together in a large bowl.
• Add the sprouts to the chili mixture, gently combine, then fold in the cilantro.
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until required. Serve chilled.

Steps:

• Sprout the mung beans: Wash and pick over the dry mung beans until the water runs clear. Add enough water to the pot so that the beans are just covered, and then cover the pot and keep in a warm place (during the summer, a window is good; during the winter, the oven is a good spot). Keep checking the water level every 6 hours, and add water if the beans look dry. The beans should sprout in about 24-48 hours.
• Once the sprouts are about 1/2 cm long, add about 2 cups water to the pot, and pressure cook the dhal until tender (each pressure cooker is different, but on mine, I turn off the cooker 5 mins after it begins whistling). Regardless, you want the dhal to be very soft and tender, but not mushy.
• In a heavy pot, heat up 1 tsp oil, and mustard seeds and cumin seeds. When the cumin seeds start sputtering, add the coriander powder and green chilies and sauté 1 minute. Now add the onions, and sauté until lightly brown.
• Add the cooked dhal, 1 cup of water, shredded ginger, 3/4 of the cilantro, salt, jaggery/sugar, and juice from lime. Bring to a rolling boil for 2 mins, and then simmer for 7-8 mins on low heat.
• Serve in small 'vatkis' (dhal bowls) with rice and roti (bread). Garnish with cilantro and lime quarters (so that people can add more lime if they wish).

Steps:

• Heat oil in a pan.
• Fry the sprouted green gram and corn in it for 3 minutes.
• Add boiled pasta and salt to taste.
• Mix well and transfer to a bowl.
• In the same pan, pour soya sauce, vinegar, chilli garlic sauce, tomato ketchup and spring onions.
• Mix well.
• In a small bowl, combine cornflour in 2 tbsps.
• of cold water.
• Pour it into the pan.
• Cook for 1 minute.
• Remove from flame.
• Mix the soya mixture in the corn bowl.
• Add chopped cabbage, green chillies, onion slices and corriander leaves.
• Mix well and serve hot.

Steps:

• Cover the mung beans with water in a deep pot.
• Bring to a boil, reduce heat and add the raw sweet potato slices; simmer until beans are soft (about 30 minutes).
• Remove from the heat and drain thoroughly.
• Mash the beans together with the sweet potatoes using a fork or potato masher and then set the mixture aside.
• Heat the oil in a skillet; once hot, add the rhubarb and zucchini; reduce the heat and cook until tender.
• Stir in the honey and seasonings and mix it all together in with the mashed beans and sweet potatoes.
• Turn the mixture out into an ovenproof dish and bake at 400°F until piping hot (about 20 minutes).
• Garnish with the coconut and continue baking until the coconut is lightly golden (about 5 more minutes).
• Serve with the brown rice and chutney.
