Mung Bean and Vegetable Soup

Ingredients:

Mung Bean – 1 cup

Onion - 1

Tomato - 1

Carrot - 1

Celery Stalk - 1

Asparagus - 3 stalks

Garlic - 1 clove

Raw Turmeric - 1 tsp

Parsley for garnish

Water to soak and cook

Himalayan Salt to taste

Preparation:

Rinse mung beans in water and soak for an hour. Drain the water. Put all the ingredients in a crockpot along with sufficient water to cover all the ingredients and some more. Let it cook on high for four hours. If the beans are still tough, set it on low for 2 more hours. Add parsley just before you stop the cooking process.

Alternately, you can cook mung beans with onion, tomato, turmeric and water enough to cover the beans in a pressure cooker for 20 minutes. Then release the lid carefully and add rest of the vegetables and salt. Add some more water to cover the vegetables and cook for 5-10 mins max with the pressure cook lid sealed back on. Garnish with parsley and enjoy!
