Moong beans are easily available everywhere. Its sprouts are quite simple to make. They are mostly used as a salad. Its cruncy texture in a salad loved by everyone. In market, very very long and yellow color sprouts are sold. Making such type of sprouts needs a lot of patience and time. Today I am writing how to to make its sprouts at home:
3/4 cup of whole green moong beans
Method:
1. Wash and soak the mung beans for 7-8 hrs in normal water. In winter it can be soaked in lukewarm or warm water.
2. Now take a colander. Place a kitchen paper towel in it.
3. Put all the moong beans on it. Water will drain out. Cover the colander with a plate. Keep this colander on a empty bowl, so that all the water coming out from the colander can be collected.
5. After keeping it in the colander, very soon tiny sprouts can be seen.
6. Here in Thailand, it grew in sprouts in 2.5 days. In 60 hrs, not only long sprouts but yellowish leaves grew too. It all depends on the weather conditions of a place. It can take 5 to 6 days to grow like market sold sprouts.
7. Now take out all the sprouts from the colander. Use as you wish in various dishes.
Tips
Though here I have made long sprouts, but I still prefer in stir fries little smaller. For smaller one 1.5 days (36 hrs) are sufficient.
