Instructions
- For sprouting mung beans, soak about 1/2 cup mung beans (this will yield more than 1 cup sprouts) in water for at least 8 hours or overnight. The mung beans will swell in size after soaking.
- Then drain all the water, put it in a glass jar & cover it with a clean wet kitchen towel. Alternatively, you may cover the drained beans in a clean kitchen towel. Leave this aside for at least 12 hours for the beans to sprout.
- After 12 hours, the beans will start to sprout. Clean the sprouts with fresh water twice a day. After about 3 to 4 days, the beans would have sprouted to a good size. Now you can use it as desired or you can store it in the refrigerator for about a week.
