Moong Sprouts Salad is a healthy and quick to make salad. It is a perfect recipe to kick-start your day or as an evening snack. I had posted earlier about making sprouts at home, as u all know homemade is always the best. Check HERE for recipe. This is a very easy breakfast alternative for working people and bachelors. If u have the sprouts in hand, this can be done in minutes. Go ahead and get creative in making this salad according to your taste buds.
Now to the recipe.
[Preparation Time-10 mins : Cooking Time- 5 mins ]
Sprouts Salad Ingredients:
- Homemade Sprouts – 2 cups
- Carrot – 1 (grated)
- Cucumber – 1/2 (chopped finely)
- Tomato – 1 (de-seeded & chopped finely)
- Coriander leaves – few
- Chilli powder – 1/4 tsp (optional)
- Salt – as needed
Method:
- Chop the cucumber, tomato (de-seeded) finely. Grate the carrot and keep it ready. Use a steamer or idli pot and steam the sprouts until cooked soft. I used my Tupperware steamer to cook it. This will hardly take 5 mins.
- To this add the chopped/grated veggies, coriander leaves, salt & chilli powder. Mix well so that all the ingredients blend well. Serve immediately.
Thats it! Healthy and yummy Sprouts Salad ready!
Refresh your day and enjoy!
Tips:
- I have steam cooked the sprouts until it was soft but not mushy. U can half-cook it if u want it to be crunchy.
- The reason for de-seeding the tomato is to prevent it from letting out water.
- Make the Sprouts Salad just before serving.
- U can use other veggies like onion, boiled potato, capsicum, raw mango pieces, cooked peanuts etc…
- U can add juice from half a lemon.
- Chilli powder can be skipped or substituted with finely chopped green chillies.
- U can use store bought moong sprouts/mixed sprouts too.
