👨🍳 Instructions
- Rinse the mung beans thoroughly under cold water; then soak them for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to reduce cooking time and aid digestion.
- Drain the soaked mung beans and transfer them to a medium pot. Add 200g of fresh water to the pot.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30-40 minutes.
- The porridge is ready when the mung beans are tender and have mostly broken down, creating a creamy consistency. Stir in the salt.
- Serve the mung bean porridge warm, optionally garnished with fresh herbs like cilantro or a drizzle of sesame oil for added flavor.
