Sprouts are considered as wonderful foods. Sprouts provide all the essential vitamins and minerals. This is a very healthy dish. In the process of sprouting the vitamins, minerals and protein increase substantially with corresponding decrease in calories and carbohydrate content. Yesterday I have prepared sprouted green gram chat. We can call it as bean sprout chat. Can make Bean sprout chat very easily.
Sprouted green gram : 1Cup
Black pepper powder : 1tsp
Zeera : ½ tsp
Chopped ginger : ½ tsp
Olive oil or any cooking oil : 2tsps
Salt to taste
Lemon juice : 1tsp
Chopped coriander leaves : 2tsps
HOW TO SPROUT :
Take good variety of green gram and wash thoroughly. Then soak overnight in water. The Bowl should be covered with lid.
Next day rinse off seeds and drain out the water. Soaking makes legumes fatty and pulpy. For sprouting can cover green gram with a cloth or you can take a big box with a hole for air. It takes 12 -14 hours for sprouting.
