Health Breakfast drink - Magh nu Pani ( Sprouts water).

There are these days during winter when you'd like a hot cup of something other than the regular coffee or tea in the morning. Magh nu pani , as we call it in gujrati is a great breakfast drink, filling and also very health. This is my grandma's recipe, every summer when my sister and me used to visit my grandparents this drink would definitively be on the table for breakfast. This recipe reminds me of my childhood days, I hope you enjoy making the drink and serving it to your family creating memories. :)

You 'll need around one cup of green moong dal, cumin powder, salt, pepper and a dash of lime juice.

1) Soak the green moong dal overnight in water ( 2- 3 cups) .
2) The next day , boil the moong dal with the same water until they are soft. Note that if there is extra water its okay, so dont throw away any water.
3) Mash the dal with a hand blender and let it pass through a sieve.
4) If needed, use a spoon to mash up the remaining moong in the sieve and discard it once done.
5) Heat the sieved sprouts water for 3-4 minutes, adding salt, cumin powder, pepper and lime juice and serve immediately. It tastes the best when its drunk hot !

This is indeed a easy and healthy breakfast recipe. And in the cold chilly mornings, it just makes me feel great ! Have fun cooking.
