Here comes the vegetarian dish of the week. In the new year I will try to inspire you to cook more vegetarian food. I will try to post a dish every week. As you may have noticed, there has been a separate category on the menu bar called "vegetarian" at the very top of the page here. Click in and get inspired! :)
Today I want to share a recipe that may take some time, but really not that long if you do things in the right order. Mung sprout salad, 4 servings.
This is what you need:
80 gr. mung beans
50 gr. red onion
100 g tomatoes
100 gr. radish
2-3 tbsp bread cubes (if you have)
1 teaspoon salt
1 tsp chaat masala
(1 fresh chili)
½ tsp pepper
3 tablespoons lemon juice
3 tablespoons finely chopped dhaniya coriander
Procedure
- Soak the beans in boiling water overnight. Cover the beans with a wet cheesecloth and leave in a warm place for about a day.
- Soak with water a couple of times if the indoor air is dry. Let the beans stand for 1–2 days until they sprout.
- Cut the onion, tomatoes and radish into small cubes. Finely chop the chili and coriander.
- Mix all the ingredients in a bowl, add spices and lemon juice.
It couldn't be a healthier and fat-free breakfast or lunch. Very filling and a real protein bomb! You can add 2 tablespoons of water to the mung sprouts and cook for a few minutes in the microwave before adding the rest. This is definitely one of my favorites :)
Lots of luck!
