Sprouts curry recipe with step by step pics – easy, healthy and tasty mixed sprouts curry recipe.

Sharing a recipe of mixed sprouts curry which I often make as a side dish to go with chapatis. The recipe is a no frills homely recipe. You can also make this curry with only mung bean sprouts or moth bean sprouts (matki). The curry has a thin gravy or ‘tari’ as we call in hindi. You can also make the sabzi dry if you prefer.

Here I used sprouted moong beans, moth beans and black chickpeas. You could use a mix of any legumes. You do need to make the sprouts a couple of days before. You can read these posts on Sprouting mixed beans and Moong beans. ½ cup of mixed beans will yield about 2 cups of mixed sprouted beans. If using 4 or 5 different types of beans, then take equal quantities of all beans.

Serve this simple nutritious mixed sprouts curry with chapatis, phulkas and rice bhakri. Also goes well with bajra roti or jowar roti. The curry also goes well with whole wheat bread.
