Time 9h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups dried green mung beans
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped carrots
1 cup chopped celery
3 cups chicken broth
3 cups water
1 ham bone
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder

Steps:

  • Place mung beans into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let soak, 8 hours to overnight. Drain and rinse the beans.
  • Heat a Dutch oven over medium heat and add the olive oil. Stir in onion, carrots, and celery; cook until slightly soft, about 5 minutes. Increase heat to high and add the beans, chicken broth, water, ham bone, garlic cloves, garlic powder, and onion powder. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer, stirring occasionally, until beans are soft, about 45 minutes.
  • Take ham bone out of the pot and remove any meat still on the bone; return meat to the pot.
