Cookd masalas for mung bean
Method
Add the black chickpeas to a glass jar. Add water to cover them by 3 inches and cover the glass jar with a cheesecloth bound by a thread knot/rubber band.
Repeat the same with black-eyed peas and mung bean in separate jars.
Allow them to soak for 24 hrs.
On the next day, rinse the chickpeas well and strain the water and place them back into the jar, making sure that they are moist but not overly drenched. Cover the glass jar again with cheesecloth bound by a thread knot/rubber band.
Repeat the same steps with the other two sprouts as well.
Repeat the same step till they are sprouted. Usually, this takes 2 to 3 days.
Pressure cook the black-eyed peas and black chickpeas in 2 cups of water by adding ½ tsp of salt for 2 whistles.
Once cool, strain the water using a strainer.
Add the cooked black-eyed peas, black chickpeas, sprouted mung bean in a mixing bowl and mix well. Add onion, tomato, capsicum, pomegranate, green chilli and mix it.
Add another ½ salt, black pepper powder, lemon juice, coriander leaves and mix well.Healthy Salad is ready to serve.
