Cherupayar thoran ( Green Gram Stir Fry)
One of my Favourite Side dish with Kanji(rice porridge), this green gram dish is very easy to make and is highly nutritious. This made a regular appearance in my lunch box during school days, and i bet that was the case with many of you.  Ingredients:- Cherupayar/Green gram/Moong beans - 1 cup Grated coconut - 1/2 cup Garlic - 3-4 cloves Shallots/Kunjulli - 6 (or use 1/4 cup chopped onions instead) Green chilies - 2 Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp Crushed peppercorns - 1/2 tsp Mustard seeds curry leaves Salt  Method Soak Cherupayar/Green gram overnight or at least for 5 hours In a heavy bottomed vessel ,Cook this with enough water, by adding salt till it is done, it will take around 20 minutes.(or cook it in pressure cooker if you want, for 2-3 whistles) In a mortar and pestle or coffee grinder, crush Ginger, green chiles and shallots. Heat oil in a pan and add mustard seeds.when they pop up add curry leaves and crushed mixture Fry it for 3-4 minutes and add cooked cherupayar/green gram and turmeric powder Add grated coconut ,and saute for 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally.Add more salt if needed Sprinkle crushed peppercorns and remove from fire Serve warm..goes well with kanji!!!!
