    Green gram sprouts Indian Lunch menu 38

    Updated on September 25, 2021 by Raks Anand 3 Comments /

    Green gram sprouts in stock? Try this for lunch instead of regular fried rice. A baked gobi 65 will make it more appealing along with vegetable gravy.

    This lunch menu needs some preplanning as we need sprouts for the fried rice.

    I planned this menu two weeks back itself, when I planned for my last week’s lunch menu with rajma masala.

    Yes, I soaked rajma and the green gram together as I always forget to soak, I wanted to make it together.

    I sprouted the green moong then in the following days. You can also use readymade sprouts if you want, but sprouting at home is more hygienic and easy too.

    Just soak overnight, next day, drain water and keep sprinkling water for a day as such in the container with the green moong, it will start sprouting.

    No need to hang it in muslin cloth and complicate, it sprouts in the bowl itself.

    Only thing we need to take care is sprinkle water few hours once to make sure it doesn't get dry.

    You can also refrigerate, it will continue sprouting, so make sure you use it within a day or two. Otherwise, if you want to store for long time, transfer to a ziploc and freeze it.

    I really had no idea what to make as side dish as I am bored of manchurian side dishes, so made use of the veggies I had in the fridge and made what ever possible.

    Both side dishes are Aj’s favorite. Here’s how I made this lunch (considering you have already sprouts)

    Instructions
