dry whole mung sabzi is a simple no-fuss cooking Indian fare. Learn how to make
healthy sukha mung.
To make
sukha moong, soak the moong in enough water in a deep bowl for 15 minutes. Drain. Combine the moong and 1½ cups of water in a pressure cooker and pressure cook it for 3 whistles. Allow the steam to escape before opening the lid. Keep aside. Heat the oil in a deep non-stick pan, add mustard seeds, cumin seeds and asafoetida and sauté on a medium flame for 30 seconds. Add the cooked moong, turmeric powder, chili powder, coriander seeds powder, lemon juice, sugar, coriander and salt, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 2 minutes, while stirring occasionally. Serve hot.
Everyday
Gujarati cooking relies on common spices and traditional tempering to make mouth-watering dishes within minutes. This
Gujarati dry moong is a semi-dry curry of soaked and boiled moong, perked up with readily-available but flavour-packed spice powders.
An aromatic tempering of mustard and cumin seeds boosts the taste of the
sukha moong, transforming it into delicious fare. It is so easy to make that you can make it on any day.
This
healthy sukha mung is an excellent source of protein and iron, along with few other nutrients like phosphorus, fibre, folic acid and B vitamins. While fibre helps to have a healthy gut, folic acid is necessary for a healthy heart and for brain health. B vitamins, though required in small amounts, have a big role to play in energy metabolism.
Traditionally
dry whole mung sabzi is served with with
Kadhi and
Rice , or
Kadhi and
Rotlis. But as a healthy option this sabzi tastes best with
Multugrain roti or
Methi ki Missi Roti.
Tips for
healthy sukha mung. 1. Remember to soak the moong. We have soaked it for 15 minutes, but if time permits soak it for about an hour. This helps to speed up the cooking process. 2. Ensure that the moong is not over cooked and soft. It should be cooked and yet maintain its whole texture. It should not be mushy. 3. Enjoy it hot and fresh. However, it can be carried to work. It stays fresh for 4 to 5 hours.
