Ingredients

yellow mung beans

Yellow mung beans are made from the whole green mung bean. They are hulled and split in half. This quickens the cooking time and offers a legume with a delicate texture that is soft once cooked and slightly starchy and meaty in quality. The flavor is mild and nutty, with a bitter hint when boiled plain. Yellow mung beans are used throughout Indian cuisine, but can be found in other cuisines as well.
