Moong Sprout Salad Recipe
This healthy sprout salad is prepared with sprouted whole moong dal (also called mung beans), as well as sprouted whole moth dal (also called moth or mat beans). You can use any vegetables and spices of your choice other than the ones used here.
Do not boil or steam the sprouts, as this will deactivate the enzymes. The salad's nutritional value would then be much reduced.
Cook Time
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup sprouted whole moong dal (mung beans), raw
- 1/2 cup sprouted whole moth dal (moth beans or mat beans), raw
- 1 small tomato, deseeded and chopped into small pieces
- 1/2 medium-sized cucumber, peeled and cut into small pieces
- 1/2 medium-sized carrot, peeled and chopped into small pieces
- 1 lemon
- 1 teaspoon chaat masala powder
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add all of the sprouts. Then add the chopped vegetables. Mix well.
- Add the chaat masala and squeeze the lemon on top. Mix well.
- The sprout salad is ready. Serve immediately.
Important Note
Consume this salad immediately. After a while, it will start to turn a bit bitter because of the lemon juice.

Yes, they taste better. I read somewhere sprout about half an inch long have the maximum vitamin and mineral content. They definitely do taste different than the much larger ones. Thanks for stopping by Doris.

I love mung bean sprouts marinated in a vingarette. This looks like the beans are just opening and haven't actually sprouted yet. I guess they would taste different from the ones with 2-inch sprouts?
This salad looks very delicious. Thank you for sharing the recipe.
