You can soak the mung beans overnight or atleast 4 hours.. it will make it tender and increase the size and reduce cooking time…. Mung beans is very staple in Southern India.. so versatile to cook.. u can even sprout it

You must invest in a good pressure cooker, it'll reduce your cooking time for lentils, rice, chickpeas etc.
You can also Serve any lentil with rice or chapati to make it more filling. Love your recipes and your joy of cooking.
