Ginataang Monggo

⏱ Prep: 15 min ⏱ Cook: 40 min

Ingredients

  • 1.5 cup Mung beans
  • 2.5 cup coconut milk
  • 1.5 cup sticky rice (washed (malagkit))
  • 7 tbsp sugar

Instructions

  1. Heat a pan and put-in the Mung beans.

  2. Toast the Mung beans until brown.

  3. Turn-off heat and let the mung beans cool down.

  4. Crack the toasted mung beans using a mortar and pestle (almires). Set aside.

  5. Heat a cooking pot and pour-in coconut milk. Let boil.

  6. Add the sticky rice and Mung beans then stir. Cook in low heat for 15 to 20 minutes while stirring once in a while, or until the coconut milk is almost absorbed.

  7. Add sugar then stir.

  8. Turn off heat and transfer to a serving plate.

  9. Serve! You may serve this either hot or cold. I like having this cold with some extra coconut milk on top.

  10. Share and enjoy!
