I loved this dish growing up. It's so versatile, breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack, whatever meal. Sweet or savory. This dish works anytime. Found the recipe at petitechef.com. I have not yet made it. But I keep all my recipes here. I don't use the sesame sugar due to my allergy to sesame seeds. However, I've always seen them served together. It must be good.

Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 4

7 oz sticky rice ((200g / scant 1 cup))
3.5-4 oz split mung beans ((100g / scant ½ cup))
1/2 teaspoon plus 1/8 teaspoon salt, divided
1 tablespoon cooking oil

Steps:

  • Rinse sticky rice and then soak in plenty of water for 2-4 hours. Also rinse then soak mung beans in plenty of water for 2-4 hours.
  • Drain the mung beans well and toss with ⅛ teaspoon salt. Then steam until they are soft, about 20 minutes. Remove from the steamer basket and let them cool slightly to let excess moisture evaporate.
  • Once the mung beans have cooled down, transfer to a food chopper/food processor and grind finely.
  • While steaming the mung beans in Step 2, drain the rice very well. After grinding the mung beans, toss the drained sticky rice with half of the mung bean powder, remaining salt and cooking oil. Before tossing, you can also use paper towels to absorb excess water from the rice.
  • Transfer the sticky rice to the steamer basket and steam until soft, about 25-30 minutes. Then let it cool slightly.
  • Toss the steamed sticky rice with the remaining mung bean powder. If you see big clumps, you can use your fingers to separate the grains while rubbing them with the mung bean powder.
  • You can enjoy the sticky rice right away on its own, or with Vietnamese sweet dessert soups (such as mung bean pudding), or with roast pork, roast chicken.

Tips:

  • Soak the mung beans overnight: This will help them cook more evenly and quickly. If you're short on time, you can also soak them for at least 2 hours.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help distribute the heat evenly and prevent the mung beans from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  • Add a little salt to the cooking water: This will help enhance the flavor of the mung beans.
  • Cook the mung beans until they are tender but still hold their shape: Overcooked mung beans will become mushy.
  • Rinse the mung beans with cold water after cooking: This will help stop the cooking process and prevent them from becoming overcooked. If you're not planning on using the mung beans right away you can store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or the freezer for up to 6 months.
  • To make the sticky rice: Use glutinous rice, which is a short-grain rice that has a sticky texture when cooked. Rinse the rice well before cooking to remove any starch.
  • Cook the sticky rice in a steamer or rice cooker: This will help ensure that the rice is cooked evenly.
  • When the rice is cooked, let it cool slightly before serving: This will make it easier to handle.

Conclusion:

Mung beans and sticky rice is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a popular street food in Vietnam. With its combination of sweet, savory, and nutty flavors, it's sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting dish to try, give mung beans and sticky rice a try!
