Notes

For this mixed sprouts curry, I took an equal quantity, ¼ cup each of mung beans (whole moong), moth beans (matki), Kala chana, black-eyed peas (lobia), raw peanuts, and a teaspoon of fenugreek seeds (methi dana).
I used the guide How to grow sprouts - lentils and beans which I have already shared on my blog.
Note the cooking time as follows:
  1. For mung bean sprouts, pressure cook 2 minutes
  2. For moth bean sprouts, pressure cook 1 minute.
  3. For black-eyed peas sprouts and Kala Chana sprouts, pressure cook 4 minutes.
I used a combination of lentils & beans for this recipe, and pressure cooked for 4 minutes.
