Sprouted Moong Makhani ~ Side dish for Rotis

Sprouted Moong Makhani is a rich and easy dish to make as a side dish for your rotis. We mostly make this for dinner when we have moong sprouts on hand. We frequently make moong sprouts and use it in various dishes as salads, as parathas and then this rich makhani gravy.

If you are not used to sprouting moongs at home, you can use readymade sprouts as well. This Makhani is not as rich as the regular Dal Makhani and even in this I tag it as Moong Dal just to refer this being a gravy, however, I only used whole moong in this gravy.

This is part of the BM#85 Main Course with Rice/Gravy dish.
