Notes
- Variations:
- Make it less spicy: Adjust spices to your taste. Skip green chili and red chili powder to make it non spicy.
- Moong Sprouts: I used raw sprouted moong beans in this recipe. However if you like, you can steam the mung sprouts before using in the recipe too.
- How to steam Mung Bean Sprouts in instant pot: Add the sprouted mung beans to a steamer basket that fits in the instant pot. Add 1 cup water to the instant pot and then place the steamer basket. Steam for 2 minutes at high pressure. Let the pressure release naturally for 5 minutes, then release pressure manually.
- How to cook Mung Bean Sprouts: Boil 5 cups water on the stovetop. Add the mung bean sprouts and quickly blanch them for 2 minutes. Rinse under cold water. Drain the water and transfer the sprouts to a colander.
- You can add veggies of your choice in this salad. Some people like to add boiled potatoes, or if mango is in season, add some chopped raw mangoes to make it more tangy.
- This salad can be made with boiled moong beans, chickpeas, black chickpeas, kidney beans or other sprouts too.
