When I feel like I don't want to eat vegetables and want some cereals then it got to my mind why not I should make whole green gram sprouts which can be used in salads and also can be served with roti or paratha.
In India my mother use to make sprouts by pretty long method but I found out an easy method to make sprouts from whole green gram. Here goes the method to make it........
First of all take the whole green gram (mung) 1 cup in a bowl then wash it properly with water. Then add water 1-1/2 cup of water to it or the mung should be soaked completely in water and little more than it. Then cover it with lid or you can take airtight container also. Allow it to soak for 7-8 hours, don't take out lid until then. After 7-8 hours check your whole green gram and you will notice that most of the water is absorbed by the green gram, if all water is not absorbed then take out excess water. The skin of green gram is broken in some of them and a little small tail from gram can be seen as well if a small tail is not seen don't worry it will be seen after further process. Mix all the green gram in the same bowl or container and then allow again it to rest for 5-6 hours and if possible mix in between and don't forget to cover lid after mixing.
Your sprouts are ready after such long waiting and you will notice big tails from the green gram. You can cook and serve with roti or paratha or par boil it and use in salads. For extra flavour add lime juice to it when serving.
