Moong sprouts curry(cherupayar curry)

Everybody knows the fact that beans or pulses are healthier and a choice of less expensive protein source. Especially for vegetarians,these are meat equivalent. There are endless things to say about the benefits of pulses. These are low in fat, good source of minerals and contains complex carbohydrates. A diet rich in pulses ensures fiber which helps to lower cholestrol. Their nutritive value increases if these are allowed to sprout. These becomes less calorific and far more nutritious than before. No need to say more,I know everybody knows these things.
Here I am presenting you a simple sprouted moong curry with less spice.

here the recipe:-
Whole moong (cherupayar) - 1 cup
Cloves - 6
cinnamon - 1 inch piece
Crushed cardomom - 5
Mustard seeds - 1/2 tsp
Turmeric powder - 1/2 tsp
Coriander powder - 2 tbsp
Red chilli powder - 1 tsp
Lemon juice - 2 tbsp
Sugar - 1/4 tsp
Onion (chopped) - 1
Coriander leaves (chopped)- 2 tbsp
Oil - as needed
Water - as needed
Salt - as needed

Soak the beans minimum of 8 hours and allow to sprout.I hope everybody knows the technique of sprouting the beans. I have not used any special vessel for this purpose. A cheesecloth and a little patience, I will get good sprouted beans.
Cook sprouted beans along with cloves,cinnamon and cardamom in a vessel. One can use pressure cooker for this step. The beans should be immersed in water.
At the same time soak coriander powder, red chilli powder and turmeric powder with a little water.
Heat some oil in a pan. Allow mustard seeds to splutter. Add chopped onion and saute till little brown. Add masala paste and saute till the oil separates.Then add cooked beans and mix properly. The masala should be very well coated with masala.You can add some water if needed to get the desired consistency.
Finish it off by adding sugar,lemon juice and coriander leaves.
Serve it hot with chappathi, rice or puttu

Try and let me know the result.I am sure you will like it.
