Directions
1. Heat a pan and put-in the Mung beans.

2. Toast the Mung beans until brown.

3. Turn-off heat and let the mung beans cool down.

4. Crack the toasted mung beans using a mortar and pestle (almires). Set aside.

5. Heat a cooking pot and pour-in coconut milk. Let boil.

6. Add the sticky rice and Mung beans then stir. Cook in low heat for 15 to 18 minutes while stirring once in a while, or until the coconut milk is almost absorbed.

9. Serve! You may serve this either hot or cold. I like having this cold with some extra coconut milk on top.
