Mung Bean Stew
Catherine Barclay
A cosy, nourishing Mung Bean Stew built on tender mung beans, soft potato, sweet carrots, and wilted spinach, all simmered with ginger, garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, and fresh tomatoes for a gently spiced, earthy, deeply comforting bowl.
- 1 cup dried mung beans rinsed
- 1 potatoe cubed
- 1 brown onion diced
- 2 carrots diced
- 4 cups vegetable stock (broth)
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 1 knob fresh ginger grated
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 ripe tomatoes diced
- 1 tsp cumin powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
In a large stock pot sauté onion, garlic, and ginger in a splash of water until soft.
Add all other ingredients except the spinach, bring to a boil, then simmer for 45 minutes until beans are tender.
Stir in the spinach until wilted.
Serve immediately on a bowl of rice.
