Ingredients
- 1 c Mung beans
- 3 ½ c Water
- 1 c Raw rice, well rinsed
- ½ ts Salt, or to taste
- 1 ½ ts Ground cuminseed
- ¼ ts Pepper
Directions
An odd combination but popular one when planning dairy meals, Mung beans are those from which beans sprouts are grown. A similar dairy combination is prepared in Bukhara indicating, through a study of their food, the probable community connections. 1. Cook beans in water over moderate heat for 1/2 hour. As green skins rise to surface during cooking process, they should be skimmed off w/a slotted spoon or a small sieve & discarded.
Add rice, salt, cuminseed, & pepper & continue to simmer mixture over low heat for 1/2 hour more. It should remain moist. Serve warm w/same dairy sauce as is used w/Poloni
