Ice Cream With Sweet Red Mung Beans Recipe

INGREDIENTS

1/2 kilo red mung beans (munggo), washed
 water
1/2 kilo brown sugar
1 tspn baking soda
 ice cream, any flavor of choice, but preferably the plain ones (I like vanilla and ube)

DIRECTIONS

1. In a medium-sized sauce pan, soak the mung beans in water for about one hour. The amount of water is about two inches above the level of the mung beans.
2. Place the pan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat once it starts boiling. Cook until the beans are soft but firm. Remove from heat. Use a strainer to drain some of the water leaving about a cup.
3. Place the pan with the mung beans back on the stove. Add the brown sugar and baking soda. Simmer for about 20-30 minutes or until the liquid has caramelized and the beans has turned very soft but not pasty (see picture). Remove from heat and let it cool in room temperature.
4. Scoop your favorite flavor/s of ice cream in a serving glass. Top it with the sweet mung bean mixture. Place the leftover in a tightly sealed bottle and keep it inside the fridge.
