Directions

  1. 1
    I like to sprout green gram in the house. You can always buy in stores like Whole Foods or even Trader Joes. To Sprout at home- Soak green gram in water overnight or for about 12 hours. Drain the water in a colander. Cover the colander completely with a plate or loosely place a muslin cloth under the sprouted gram and cover it. Keep it in a warm place for about a couple of days.
  2. 2
    Boil the Sprouted Gram along with salt. Alternately, you can steam them.
  3. 3
    Strain the water and keep them aside.
  4. 4
    In a bowl, toss Onion, tomato, carrot, corn, ginger and boiled gram/moong.
  5. 5
    To this add, coconut and roasted peanuts
  6. 6
    Combine Lemon juice, Olive Oil, Salt and Black Pepper. Beat it with a fork to blend them well.
  7. 7
    Drizzle on top of the Sprouted Gram mixture and give it a quick toss.
  8. 8
    Garnish with chopped coriander. I like to let it sit for about half hour for the flavors to blend in.
