Sprouted Moong Curry

Sprouted Moong curry is healthy, nutritious and has an excellent fresh flavor. Sprouted Mung beans are full of protein. They can be cooked in several ways, I made this in coconut gravy. You just need to soak whole moong bean overnight and then left it in a warm place with covered cloth, so that they can easily start sprouting. It is a delicious, quick and one pot curry. It can be eaten with roti, steamed rice or paratha.

• 2-3 cup Sprouted Moong

• Pinch of Asafoetida/Hing
• 1 Chopped Medium sized Tomato
• ¼ cup Chopped Coriander Leaves
• 1 tsp Red Chili Powder
• ½ tsp Turmeric Powder
• 1 tsp Garam Masala

Method:

1. Blend the coconut, garlic and black pepper in a blender, make a paste and keep aside.

2. Heat oil in the small pressure cooker, add cumin seeds, mustard seeds, when seeds crackled add pinch of asafoetida.

3. Add the prepared coconut paste, sauté few minutes (1-2 minutes) on medium flame.
