Hi, Jamie. This is a go-to dish in Filipino households. My Mom makes this frequently, and we eat it with rice and a splash of Sriracha. She substitutes bacon for the pork sometimes (my favorite), and leaves off the prawns if she doesn't have any on hand. You can sub soy sauce for the patis if you

Hi, has anybody ever cooked mung beans and if so, how and what did you season them with and what else was in them? I have read where you could sprout them for salad but this sounds way too complicated, so any other ideas would be most helpful. Thanks and have a blessed day.
