An Aegean olive oil dish of mung beans cooked with onion and tomato. This lesser-known but flavorful recipe can be served cold or warm and suits a light evening meal.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Sauté the onion

5 min

Heat the olive oil and add the finely chopped onion. Sauté until lightly golden.

2

Add the tomato

5 min

Add the grated tomato to the onion and sauté for a few more minutes.

3

Cook the mung beans

30 min

Add the soaked mung beans to the pot and pour in enough water to cover them. Add the sugar and salt, cover, and cook over low heat until the beans are tender.

Reminder

Mung beans soften more quickly than many other dried legumes. If cooked too long, they can fall apart and turn mushy. No common allergens are listed in the ingredients.
