• Serve at room temperature or cold.
• Shortly before serving, sprinkle mung bean sprout salad with about 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds.

Steps:

• To make this healthy Sprouted Moong Salad, take sprouted mung bean / moong in a bowl.
• If you wish to cook it, then soak the sprouts in boiling water for 3 to 4 minutes. Rinse in cold water, drain and then use it for the salad. Sprouts when cooked will loose some of its crunch feel.
• Add chopped raw onion, tomato, grated carrot, sweet mango ( use any sweet tropical fruit of choice, pineapple or pomegranate works too)
• Add finely minced green chillies, chopped coriander leaves, salt, black pepper powder and some chaat masala. (Use little cumin powder if you can't find chaat masala or replace with little dry mango powder for tang feel)
• Finally drizzle some lemon juice on top and mix well to combine. Toss well!
• Serve immediately or refrigerate for 1 hour and serve chilled!
