Mung Dal

Contributed by: Melinda

Mung beans are very small green colored dried beans. The great thing about them is they need very little soaking time, and cook in about 1 hour. They are also easier to digest than larger beans.

1 cup dried mung beans
1 1/2 tbl oil
1/2 tsp mustard seed (brown if possible)
1/2 tsp turmeric
1 tbl lime juice
4 cups water
1 tsp fresh minced ginger
1 tsp sea salt or kosher salt
1/2 - 1 tsp coriander powder
1/2 - 1 Jalapeno finely chopped
1/2 bunch fresh cilantro
    For this recipe it is important to have all the ingredients measured and prepared before you begin.
  • Soak mung beans in 4 cups of water for 2 hours. Drain.
  • Heat oil in heavy skillet, add mustard seeds. When they pop, add turmeric, lime juice and drained beans.
  • Add the ginger and 4 cups of water. Cover and cook over medium - medium low heat until just tender for approximately 1 hour.
  • Add salt, Jalapeno and cilantro and cook for an additional 15 minutes or until beans are very tender.

    May be garnished with additional fresh cilantro.
