1 medium size onion
2 fresh tomatoes
2 green chillies
1 tsp Ginger garlic paste
4 tbsp Oil to fry
Fresh coriander powder Yellow powder Goda masala or indian garam masala
1 tsp Jaggery

Method to make sprouts with whole green moong
Wash and soak whole green moong overnight . Drain extra water and turn them into big enough sieve.so that air can pass, leave it for another day .by evening roots will start to grow and overnight they will develop fully.here in lagos temperature is just perfect for seeds to sprout.if you are living in colder region you could keep your seeds wrapped in wet muslin cloth and keep it in closed kitchen cupboard , but make sure its not tightly close , just enough to give warmth to seeds like a baby.:-). 

Method to fry 

  Take oil in pan let it be hot . Start with onion untill golden brown. Followed by green chillies, ginger garlic paste. When it leaves oil put tomatoes cook untill they leave oil . Now put corinader powder, goda masala yellow powder and nicely mix your sprouts . After they leave oil pour 2 cups of water and pressure cook for 1 whistle , mix with jaggery. Idea behind semi cooking sprouts is to retain their nutrition and taste . Serve with hot chapati or wheat bread.
