Mung Bean Medley
By Esther Boateng
A little seasoning is all you need to enhance the taste of this quick side dish. I like the compactness of the mung beans and okra. You can also substitute the mung beans with other legume varieties, such as sea island red peas or adzuki. I prefer to use a small amount of liquid to get a stew-like texture, but feel free to add more liquid if you prefer a broth-like consistency. Serve warm on a bed of broccoli sprouts, greens or with rice.
