Though my favorite bean is probably chickpeas, mung beans are a close second. The addition of fresh tomato and un-fried onion and green chilies add a nice crunch to this spicy dish. I have adapted the recipe from 1,000 Indian Recipes by by Neelam Batra. This extensive collection of delights was a gift from my dear friend Susan. As I noted before, this cookbook is not strictly vegetarian, but there are lots of vegan and vegetarian ideas for spice blends, condiments, starters and snacks, soups, salads, vegetables dishes, paneer, legumes, curries, breads, desserts and beverages. I particularly enjoy the wide range of recipes from various regions of India.

Tasty recipe ... though I prefer to use fresh coriander and once served, I like to squeeze a bit of fresh lemon on top. A simple but tasty meal by itself!
