Sprouts Salad
Sprouts are rich in nutrients and offer a delightful crunch and flavor that makes every bite a joy. The health benefits of having sprouts are numerous. They help manage weight, control cholesterol, improve gut health, and more. Including sprouts regularly in the diet helps to reduce intestinal gas.
How to make perfect sprouts
There are several tools to make sprouts like sprouts makers in the market and many use muslin cloth. But I have used a simple airtight box to sprout my green gram (mung beans). Wash green gram thoroughly and soak it with water for at least 8 hours or overnight. Then strain the water and transfer the soaked green gram in an air-tight container. Set it aside overnight to sprout. You can use this sprout in various dishes as you prefer. I make curries, stir-fries, and salad.

Method
Take all the ingredients in a bowl and give a nice mix. Serve.
I like to serve sprout salad along with grilled fish or air-fried chicken.
I had had the sprouts raw and cooked. Both ways, I didn’t have any issues. But if you are concerned about eating it raw or have a sensitive stomach, just steam-cook sprouts for 5-10 minutes.
Yes, as long as it is moderate as a side. If you like to have it as a main meal, then have it during lunch as it takes a long time to digest.
