Sprouts is a whole grain which has more nutrition packed in.Its really nutritious in a way they have all the nutrition a plant wants to grow.Eating uncooked sprouts can be a nightmare for many people including my dear ones.So this is a simple curry recipe to make your meal more healthier.You can even make pesarattu with moong.According to me these are the easiest to make in cold temperature too.
Again i am insisting that making of sprouts is very easy.Soak the lentils/dried beans for 8 hours or overnight.Drain the excess water and cover it.In 16 hours moong bean/green gram will have a white tail and is ready to go in your salads,pan cakes.You can make a simple salad for breakfast,lunch with these home grown nutrition rich mixed beans.
Store in refrigerator for up to one week.If using in salad,better make fresh ones every time(my preference).I cook them most of the time so used to store them in an airtight container and keep in fridge.You can sundal ,patties with the homemade sprouts.
Better be careful about the bacterial infection caused by bacteria present when you buy it from outside.To avoid infection make your own and fresh or , cook them without loosing nutrition.If You are looking for ideas to include sprouts to your diet , please check here Some idea from my side.. while finishing up your soup you can mix and enjoy a more healthy soup or Just sprinkle on top of your sandwich or sambar while finishing up.Now to the recipe .
