Green Bean Porridge Dessert - Khmer Cooking recepes

Rinse mung beans under cold water until the water runs clear.

Soak mung beans in water for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Drain the soaked mung beans and place them in a pot.

Add fresh water to the pot, covering the beans by about 2 inches.

Bring the water to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer.

Cook the mung beans for about 30-40 minutes until they are soft and starting to break apart.

Stir in sugar and salt to taste, adjusting for sweetness.

Add coconut milk and ginger, stirring to combine.

Simmer for an additional 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

Remove from heat and stir in pandan leaves and vanilla extract.

Let the porridge sit for a few minutes to thicken.

Serve warm, optionally garnished with additional coconut milk or toasted coconut.
