Dada Shivananda

Mung beans and spinach, Mung Fagioli el Verdura,  As the name in Italian,  in short, it is an easy-to-digest preparation for those who need to break their fast, which is usually done on new and full moon days.

The inspiration for this dish is Kidchuri, an old Ayurvedic recipe for mung dal that used to cleanse and rejuvenate the body as it’s so nourishing, easy to digest, and is great for rebuilding the body. In Ayurvedic culture, people are sometimes recommended to eat just this dish for a week or more – mung dahl for every meal! Kidchuri is a vegetarian equivalent to chicken soup.

On average, every four months, it’s wise to a cleanse depending on your lifestyle and diet, or just for a day in a month do a mono diet. Just mung dal for breakfast, lunch, and light vegetable soup for early supper that does you an of the world of good.

Mung beans, which have a green covering and small yellow beans inside, are among the most alkaline beans. When you get them at the store, they’re usually split yellow. To facilitate digestion, soak the beans overnight; it will also speed up the cooking. As the beans swell and sprout, the nutrients multiply.  They’re excellent sources of folate, soluble fiber, and rich in amino acids, which is important for the cells to produce protein and regenerate. These beans are also great sources of  Vitamin B complex, calcium, and potassium.

While it is a cleansing dish, it’s also comforting and creamy. Mung dal mixed with coconut milk at the end of cooking is like soul food. Try it! I’m sure you will love this dish. Read further below to know how to make this lovely dish.
