Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Green Mung/Moong
  • 1 Wet Paper Towel
  • A Colander

Instructions
 

  • Wash and soak Green Moong for 24 hours(After 12 hours,rinse and soak in fresh water again,for a total of 24 hours)
  • Rinse and put Green Moong in a colander.
  • Place a wet paper towel on the Moong.
  • Put a plate under the colander to catch any drips and place in a DARK place,undisturbed, for 24 hours(I put in my oven)
  • Your Sprouted Moong is ready for consumption.

Notes

Its important to soak the Moong for 24 hours instead of overnight. Rinsing and soaking in fresh water again after 12 hours ensures bacteria doesn't have a chance to form. Place the colander in a microwave,oven,cabinet or drawer.
Variation-In 1 tbsp ghee/oil,add cumin. Let it crackle.Add ginger,green chilies,coriander powder,turmeric,salt and 1/4 cup water and give one whistle in pressure cooker and release pressure immediately or cook in a covered pan till done.
