I make Pinto beans in the Pressure cooker for 55 minutes timed after the

pressure starts, I make two cups of beans and I fill the pot with water up to

the line on the pot. I have never been disappointed with my beans.

Also, I make them without soaking them.

I use 1 pound of beans in my pressure cooker. For soaked beans it takes about

30 minutes. For un-soaked beans it takes 45 minutes. I dod let the beans cool

on their own for a while, in the cooker. We eat beans all the time!

i cook them indian style. boil the beans. fry oniuons, tomato, add beans. boil.

sometimes i boil them then add cottage cheese, indian pickle and salt.

yes, sprouted beans are cooked the same way as regular beans.

Kiran, what a great set of instructions, thanks! I am curious what you do with

your sprouted beans--do you just cook them like regular beans?

soaking beans

 

Sprouting beans:

Spread beans on a plate or white sheet and remove and foreign matter, such as

twigs and stones.

Put beans in a pot. Cover with water.

Wash the beans by rubbing with your hands, changing water several times. Soak

beans in about three times the water. 1:3.

Time: minimum 12 to maximum 24 hours. Change water once or twice. you may see

some beans such as moong beans sprouting during soaking, specially when soaking

for 24 hours.

Decant the water. Beans will be wet. cover and leave overnight. You will see

that some beans such as moong beans sprout easily. Some require 24 hours and

longer to sprout.

You want the sprouted part to be larger, easy! cover the soaked and decanted

beans with a plate and put some weight on it.

I take a mixture of several types of beans. I buy them from Indian store. Moong,

lentils, chick peas, tur, black eyed beans, kidney beans etc. I soak beans in

morning, decant water in evening and cover the beans. Next morning I cook in

pressure cooker.

Kidney beans and chick peas take longer to cook. Moong and moth beans do not

require pressure cooker, they cook much faster.

As I have mentioned earlier, 1 and 1/4 cup of dry beans provide me with 75 gms

of proteins.

experiment. i love to expriment.

Re: I am vegetarian

 

Oh that is funny Maggie.

 

Maybe we could learn abut sprouting together.

 

Does anyone know of a simple guide? Or would you talk us through it?

 

I could get going this weekend.
