Great video, will try it then update!!

I'm just making this now and hoping for a good result. I appreciate the detail you provide such as the 'tempering' which I've only recently begun to understand. Your dishes offer a lot of options for me, a vegan. Also, you get the pace just right and remind us of the amounts as need as we reach each stage of the process, something many others overlook to do
Thank you so much! I appreciate that and hope you thoroughly enjoy this curry! It's not only delicous, but it's very good for you too!

Thanks for posting this recipe. I’ll try it tomorrow. I got 10 kilo mug bean bag as a gift and now I need to figure out how to cook them. So if you have any other mung bean recipes, that’s be so helpful!
Oh wow! 10kg of moong beans! That's quite a bit, bit I have you covered! Checkout these videos as well:

Awesome!! Let me know your feedback on that one too!
Hmmmmmmmm........😘
Thanks!!!!
wow really delicious, simple ingredients, even without onion, but very yummy, tried also your bindhi and potato and eggplant with potato all delicious, love your way of cooking, other methods have too many ingredients but when i cook them it is a disaster so i stick to your ways, thank you very much, you bring delicious dishes into our home
You're very welcome! It makes me really happy to hear that you are enjoying my recipes.I'm trying to bring the best recipes from all the mums, aunties, baa's that I know, to share them with everyone and keep our recipes alive.
I'll also be bring a lot of tasty international dishes to the channel, so stay tuned.
overjoyed to your reply and your way of cooking whichdoes not need the use any of meat or cubed meat seasoning, i appreciate this very much, it is healthier and economical for retired seniors like me. may God bless you and your family always😊🙏
Thank you for your blessings! I'm happy to help!
A brilliant dish. Thank you. I’ve made it lots of times, but make sure you reduce the salt to half a teaspoon only. You can add more salt to taste after the curry finishes cooking.
Thank you 🙏🏽 So glad you’re enjoying it! And yes, reduce the salt to your taste😊 Happy eating!
Thanks for posting! Always wanted to make this :)
Is there a substitute for the fresh curry leaves?
Should I use dried, or can I use something different? And will it change the flavour a lot?
Still new to cooking, so any help would be appreciated!
Awesome! Well, I'm glad you found my Channel!! Naturally, fresh Curry Leaves are the best! They can be found at any Indian or Sri Lankan shop. If you don't have access to it, dry will work, or you can make it without Curry Leaves and it will still be delicious. The Curry Leaves add a slightly flavour to the curry which makes it better, so stay on the lookout for curry leaves! You can freeze them if you find them fresh and don't use them up!
Let me know if you have any other questions! I'd be happy to help!!
Thank you again❣Questions; 1/why you do not use Ghee now? 2/ I learned to put fresh coriander on the end and never before🤔 My digestion is sensible so I must take half rice+hlf. mungdal beans. 3/ Can that be cooked together in the same time? 4/ You don't do joghurt in it, because of all the heat in it. Is there a reason for it? 5/ I take hlf vegatables+ hlf mungdal for the digestion. I never used HING so I love to try it ! Namasté🌹
Hello! In this recipe, you can definitely use ghee instead of oil for the tempering! I made it vegan, but ghee adds a delicious flavour, so try it!
I put coriander in the tempering as it adds a different flavour than adding it as a garnish. You can add more at the end if you want. Traditionally, yes, coriander is added at the end for its fresh flavour and colour.
I have a recipe for khiichdi (th-cam.com/video/fyVuITULja8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=0tyt4Fl-rs__fHq4) which is split moong beans and rice. Whole moong beans and rice won’t cook at the same time (moong beans need a bit longer). If the moong beans are split, you can cook them together.
Kadhi (th-cam.com/video/iI0YQt9_ObI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=whRdrtzyBGuOH4LO) goes very well with moong bean curry or khichdi. You can make it with vegan yogurt or regular. Try this combination. It’s delicious and good for you!
I hope I answered all your questions 😊🙏🏽♥️
I cooked that today for lunch, it was delicious! Didn’t have hing but used garlic powder instead. Thank you ☺️💕
Wonderful! I'm glad you enjoyed it! You can buy Hing or Asafoetida in most large supermarkets in the UK. It gives the curries another flavour dimension and helps with flatulence caused by lentils.
If you are vegan, I recommend buying Hing because it gives dishes some umami as it has a sort of eggy smell & flavour. I add a pinch of hing to certain vegan dishes I make and it makes a difference!
Because she also uses premium ingredient like himalayan salt
Yes, the salt helps too for sure!
This is exactly how i make my Moong bean curry as well. It tastes really good with plain boiled rice and Gujarati Kadhi.
I love That Anjna! This is one of many ways to make moong, but I wanted to give people a starting point from where they can adjust the recipe to their taste.But honestly, this recipe is great as it is! I'll be doing a video on kadhi as well in the near future as well as many other dishes and sweet dishes. Stay tuned!
Thank you chef. Can you please also make some recipes from plant based milk. I literally had sleepless nights after visiting dairy farm and witnessing what a horrific life the poor cows go through. They are pain fully inseminated every 6 months so that the calf is born. Calves are taken away immediately without a single drop of milk. Male calves are killed in the slaughter house on that very day. This process continues for some years till the cow is completely exhausted and later sold for meat. That’s the milk we consume and use in our puja 😞. I witnessed the 2 day old calves taken to the slaughter house and mother cow running behind him. I will never forget that day, the day I turned vegan.
Thank you for sharing your experience and what you witnessed. Although I’m not vegan, I do try to reduce my milk and meat intake. I have a playlist that is for vegan recipes or allows recipes to be made vegan easily. Do enjoy! And I will make more videos in the near future 🙏🏽♥️
This turned out pretty good, even without that ingredient that’s difficult to pronounce! (I couldn’t find it)
Glad you liked it! I think you mean asafoetida? You can get it in any Indian store 😊
Lovely dish 😋
😋 Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed!
Hi Milhaan, Can I use mung beans which I already soaked over night? Would I have to reduce cooking time? I was going to make a different recipe but I saw this video and I want to do the curry now. Thank you
Yes, you can! Just adjust the cooking time and the amount of water you use. I'm not sure exactly by how much, but you should be able to tell when the moong beans are cooked and add more water as needed!
Glad you wanted to try this recipe! It really is tasty! I hope you enjoy it!
Have you ever tried adding a teaspoon lemon juice and goor (jaggery) for a slightly different version ...this is the only thing my mum does different x
I have tried it sweet and sour and that is delicious as well! Thank you for sharing this with my viewers!
Very very delicious. What do you happen to know the calories? I'm trying to put weight on
Thank you!
I’m not sure on the calories but it’s full of carbs and protein and if you have it with roti or rice, the carbs will increase😊
Did you soak that overnight before or not? and can i cook that in pressure cooker?
Great questions! You do not need to soak the moong beans overnight. Just wash them then put them to boil.
You can cook the moong beans in a pressure cooker, but the consistency will be stickier, so boiling on the stovetop is the best way to go!
How ironic to hear you say Gujaratis eat this after a weekend of heavy food. I literally made this today because I ate alot of heavy food this weekend and felt like I needed something nutritious, lighter and healthy.
Exactly! And this recipe is so delicious, so I hope you enjoyed it!
Can we cook in pressure cooker?
Great question. Sometimes, when you cook moong in a pressure cooker, it becomes sticky. So I recommend just boiling it on the stove. The texture is much better this way.
Can i mix that with lentil or rice
I would not add any other lentil to this dish as it is perfect without it. You can eat it with cooked rice though! Enjoy!
Hello is it ok if I soak the lentils overnight? I generally do this with any beans/lentils I cook with as a habit. Will it affect this dish negatively?
Hi there! Yes, you can soak the moong beans then boil them for less time and add less water. It will still be great 👍🏽
@@MilhaanHome Awesome thank you!
Hi only now seeing this video,and am about to cook that same bean...but I don't have all the ingredients that was used in the video,is that ok..eg, chili red and dry and curry leaves
Yes. You can omit it this time and try it with them the next time you make it. I'm sure it will still taste good! But with those ingredients, it will be better!
@@MilhaanHome it did taste good...but I will try to get those that I did not have for next time...it's a wonderful tasting bean.. thank you for explaining so well
Awesome! You're very welcome! I'm making it today!! It's a regular dish in my home!
@@MilhaanHome ooo that's really nice,and we will be having in a little while with Flatbread.. late :-)
Late dinner
Hi, i have soaked my mong over night and then cooked even for an hour but sometimes they still dont tirn out soft..what am i doing wrong? I dont use pressure cooker but my mom does..
There seems to be something wrong with the Moong beans. If the Moong beans are very old, they don’t cook properly. Don’t throw them away yet though!
Buy some some small moong beans and try again. If they still don’t cook, you may need to cook them longer. Sometimes altitude makes a difference and you may need to cook longer due to this.
Make a gluten free, vegan roti please. My favorite Gujarati restaurant in Cupertino, CA Kokila's kitchen used the make it for our family since we are all celiac and vegan.
Thank you for the request! I sure will!
Do you need to soak it like the other beans?
Great question! No, you don't need to soak these beans. Just follow the instructions on the video and they'll cook perfectly! Enjoy!
@@MilhaanHome thank you, it looks delicious 😋
You're welcome! It is really delicious and a very popular recipe of mine! Enjoy!
Cum se numesc frumzele vetzi pe care le-ai adăugat?
Green coriander or Cilantro
If you add the salt before the bean is all done, won't that slow the cooking process and make it take longer?
Great question! By the time you add the salt, the beans are mostly cooked. Adding the salt at this time helps improve the flavour and keeps a great texture for the beans. Enjoy!
@@MilhaanHome ok great. I bought the split mung beans though, and soaked them before cooking. No time for food that takes up to one hour to prepare.😄
OK. If you soaked the split moong beans, it'll take no time at all! Just make sure you don't lose all the skin when you drain it!! Enjoy!
@@MilhaanHome oh yeah, it cooked in no time, just the way we like it, Lol. And yes, the skin came off but I was able to save most of them (nothing comes between me and anything green in nature 😂).
Wonderful!!
This is our indian food ☺️😂
Yes it is!! So delicious 🤤
Pls cook kadhi a Gujarati kadhi
Thks madam
Here’s the link to my video for Kadhi:

@@MilhaanHome thks for.ur reply madam
You're very welcome! I hope you enjoy it!
Been
😊
No onion's???
Hi Prash.
No onions in this recipe. I use onions in Chana and other pulses but not in moong like this. I suggest you follow the recipe exactly first and see how you like it. Then you can always make changes to the recipe to make it to your taste.
Let me know if you have any other questions & happy cooking!
Vas
@@MilhaanHome thanks, I have had this since I was a kid and have never had it without onions in the recipe. But I guess it's different for each region within Gujarat which is what makes Indian food so great. Also using a pressure cooker helps when cooking out the lentil (my mum gave me that tip).
I agree! The variations make Indian food so versatile!
As for using a pressure cooker, it does help cook the lentils quicker, but with regards to moong, it changes the texture and makes it a bit gluey. Try it both ways and see if you notice the difference. I cook most of my other lentils in a pressure cooker, just not the moong.
Loved it, I used peeled moong beans though
I make a different curry with peeled moong beans and that's delicious too! That I do with onions. So many varieties and all so good!!
You don't need to cook for 50 to 60 mins if moong is soaked in water and if you use a pressure cooker. :-/
Yes, you can definitely soak the moong beforehand for less cooking time!😉
Some flaky fried chicken that Mrs Godiwalla from Bombay served at all her weddings and Navjots that she catered for.
Definitely need this after a big meal 😉
