Ingredients
8 cup water
1 cup mung beans (dry)
1 cup basmati rice
1/2 cup soy oil
1/2 cup soy sauce (up to)
3 tablespoon whole yellow mustard seed

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 black pepper
1 fennegreek powder
1 oregano
1 carton plain yogurt
1 carton mango chutney
Directions: How to Cook East Indian Mung Beans And Rice
1. Boil water.
2. Mix all ingredients.
3. Boil again.
4. Cover and simmer for 1+ hours.
5. Watch for chili-like consistency.
For good plate presentation, I like to put a reasonable portion on a plate, and then put a stripe of yogurt and a stripe of chutney (like an equal sign) on top.
This is a moderately hot dish, so I like to serve it with a cold tobuli salad, some nan or pita, and a Ravi Shankar CD on the stereo.

| Lynne writes: What a tasty dish! I was worried that it would be too soupy with that much water, however, it turned out perfectly. I didn't have soy oil so I used peanut oil and it was great. Posted on 25 May 2008, 22:30 ET |
