Mung Bean Curry | Moong Masala Recipe | Sanjana.Feasts

✏️ FULL RECIPE & TIPS: www.sanjanafea...
Mung Bean Curry is wholesome Indian vegetarian dish to enjoy with roti. It's thick, creamy and cooked with an aromatic paste of ginger, green chilli and coriander. Shards of crispy, ghee-fried garlic add bold flavour and texture. Serve it as a main meal, or as a side dish for your favourite Indian recipes. It's particularly delicious with Kadhi and rice.
Steps for making mung bean curry
1. Wash and soak the mung beans
An essential step with preparing any type of lentils, beans or pulses is to wash them throughly and soak them. Washing removes surface dirt and soaking softens them and makes them more digestible. Choose a hot soak for 30 minutes, along with a pinch of baking soda is ample. the longer the beans soak, the shorter the cook time on the stove.
2. Pound the aromatics
The basis of this Mung Bean Curry is a hot and aromatic green chilli paste. I like to pound Indian green chillies, garlic, ginger and juicy coriander stems in a pestle and mortar to bruise into a coarse pulp. You can use a blender or grinder but my inner Indian grandma tells me it tastes much better when you bash it by hand.
3. Cook the mung beans
Cook the paste in ghee, along with tomatoes, mung beans and water. Cover with a lid and simmer for 40 minutes until the mung beans are very tender. Stir often because nobody likes it when it sticks.
4. Whisk the mung bean curry
There’s a reason why I have a balloon whisk tattooed to my left arm. It’s my secret weapon. Whisk the beans into a creamy oblivion for the most luxuriously velvety finish. Don’t forget to add the dried ground spices at this stage, too. You’ll need turmeric, ground cinnamon (very important), kasoori methi and salt.
5. Prepare the tadka
Finally, sizzle the cumin seeds and wafer-thin slices of garlic in hot ghee. Go slow and stir all the time. Don’t over brown the garlic. Now hurry! Pour the whole thing over the cooked mung bean curry. Garnish with fresh coriander, chopped red chillies (optional) and serve.
