#  Method of Making.....

# Clean and wash green mung well for 4 or 5 times.
Let it soak in the sufficient water overnight or 8 hours.

# After that, drain out the water of soaked Mung in a strainer. 
Let it remain for 24 hour in the summer sprinkling little drops of water in between...3 or 4 times.

In winter... sprouting will take 2 days.

# Next day....you will find beautifully sprouted beans like the following picture.

# Now sprouted Mung is ready to stir fry.
On the flame and  place a kadhai with oil.
As the oil heats up... add cumin seeds to crackle along with turmeric powder.
Add sprouted mung and saute it for 1 minute.
Add salt and water...mix well and let it cook on the slow flame.

# Cover it with a plate and let it cook on the slow flame.
After 5 minutes check it and stir it and again cover it.
Accordingly, you have to cook it for 20 minutes till soft in kadhai.

# Now it is well cooked.
As it cools down a little...just add chopped green chillies, ginger flakes, tomatoes, onions, lemon juice, black salt, cumin powder etc.

# In this way, "Sprouted Mung Stir Fry" is ready to enjoy.
Serve it with a lemon slice.

You can enjoy it warm and cold both.

Street vendors sell it as cold sprinkling lots of lemon juice, green chillies and Chaat masala.

# Note....

# You can Cook this recipe in the pressure cooker in 5 minutes. Just take 1 whistle on the high flame and 5 minutes more on the slow flame adding 100 ml.water only.

Kadhai cooking gives a seperated nice  texture.

# Like many other sprouts like black gram, soyabeans, maunt etc.... sprouted moong can be eaten raw but cooking sprouts is a good way to remove any impurities and better digestion.

# You can add other veggies as your taste.

Thanku Friends..
