How To Sprout Mung Beans

1. We will take 1 cup of whole Green gram beans to make Green Mung Sprouts.

2. Now, pour in a bowl, cover, and soak the Mung beans in water overnight or for 7-8 hours.

3. After keeping them overnight, you can see that the beans have swelled and almost doubled.

4. Wash the beans properly. Now, place a strainer over a large bowl and pour the beans onto the strainer to strain the moisture.

5. Wash once more with fresh water.

6. Discard the water. Leave the beans on the strainer and cover with a lid. Keep it covered for 24 hours. If you do not want to keep it in the strainer, you can keep it covered with a cloth, too.
