Equipment

Ingredients

  • 3 Cups Mung Sprouts
  • 6 Leaves Curry Leaves
  • 1 Tablespoon Cumin Seeds
  • 1 Pepper Green Chili Pepper Slit length wise
  • 1 Pepper Red Chili Pepper
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Turmeric Powder
  • 1 Tablespoon Ghee (Vegans can use olive oil instead of ghee)
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Sea Salt Or to taste

Instructions

  • Set aside seasoning ingredients (green and red chili pepper, cumin seeds, turmeric) and mung sprouts.
  • Set Instant Pot (IP) to 'saute' mode and add ghee. Once the 'hot' sign pops up, add seasoning ingredients. If you're cooking in a pan in a stove top, follow the same process.
  • Add sprouts, salt, half cup water and mix well. Set lid on and set IP to 'steam' mode for 3 minutes. Once done and pressure is released, set back to 'saute' mode and cook for about 5 minutes. If you're cooking in a pan set a lid on it after adding sprouts, salt and water. Cook for 12 to 15 minutes on medium flame. Stir occasionally.
  • Serve hot with jeera rice.
