Instructions
How To Make Sprouted Moong Dal:
1) In a bowl, rinse and soak 1 cup of whole moong dal for at least 6 hours or overnight.
2) Once soaked, drain and rinse the mung beans one more time.
3) Place the moong dal in a mason jar, cover with a damp paper towel or cheesecloth, and place the mason jar ring back on the jar.
4) Place the jar upside down and slanted in another bowl for 2-3 days until you see the dal sprouting.
PRO TIP: The longer you leave them in the mason jar, the longer the sprouts will be. If you want longer sprouts just leave them in the mason jar a day or two longer.
How To Make Sprouted Moong Salad:
1) In a pot, bring water to a boil and boil the sprouted mung beans for about 5-6 minutes to make sure they are clean.
2) Strain the sprouts from the water and set them aside.
3) In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 1/2 cup of moong dal sprouts, 2 Tbsp finely chopped onions, 1 cup diced cucumber, 1/2 cup diced tomatoes, 1 cup shredded carrots, 1 minced green chili, 2 Tbsp chopped cilantro, 1/4 cup roasted peanuts, 1/2 tsp chaat masala, salt & black pepper to taste, and 2 Tbsp lime juice.
4) Toss everything to combine, serve, and enjoy!
