    Mung beans are among my favorite. They're most often used in Indian andChinese cooking. With their rich, creamy texture, they're also great in salads.And their health credentials are excellent: zero cholesterol, negligible fat, high inprotein and dietary fiber, and a good source of calcium and iron.

    This mung bean balls is a particularly tasty recipe such a apptizer. It's quick andeasy to make (apart from the overnight soaking of the beans), especially as youcan do most of the preparation in advance.

    1 cups mashed, boiled, hulled mungbeans 3 coriander roots, well pounded tsp pepper 5 cloves garlic, well pounded 1 tsp salt 2-3 tbsp wheat flour 1 eggs 1 tsp vegetable oil

    12/12

    1 cup rice flour, OR scant 1 cup regular white flour (MAKES: 12-15 small cornfritters, serves 6 as an appetizer) 1 tsp. baking powder 4 Tbsp. vegetarian fish sauce (available at Vietnamese food stores), OR regular fishsauce, or soy sauce 1 Tbsp. [wheat-free] soy sauce 2 eggs 1/2 block medium or firm tofu (about 1 cup), cut into small cubes 1 cup corn (cut fresh off the cob or frozen) 4 spring onions/scallions, sliced 1 loose cup fresh coriander, chopped 1/2 green bell pepper, diced 1 fresh red or green chili, minced, OR 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper 1/3 tsp. turmeric 1-2 kaffir lime leaves (available frozen at Asian food stores), snipped into slivers(discard stem) TO SERVE: 1 bottle Thai Sweet Chili Sauce (available in the Asian section of mostgrocery stores, and all Asian stores)

    TO FRY: approx. 1 cup canola or other vegetable oil for deep-frying

    Preparation:

    1. Break the eggs into a large mixing bowl. Add the [vegetarian] fish sauce and soysauce. Whisk together.2. Add the tofu, corn, onion, coriander, bell pepper, chili, turmeric and lime leaf slivers.Stir together.3. Mix the baking powder with the flour (this can be done right in your measuring cup).Now add the flour mixture a little at a time, stirring to blend it in and form a thickmixture.4. Taste-test the mixture, adding up to 1 Tbsp. more fish sauce if not salty enough.5. Heat the oil in a wok or small frying pan over medium-high heat (the oil should be atleast 1 inch deep). When bubbles begin to rise from the bottom of the pan, OR the oilbegins to "move" across the bottom of the pan, try dropping in a 1/4 tsp. of themixture. If it sizzles and begins to cook, the oil is ready. If not, the oil needs to heat alittle longer.6. When oil is ready, drop a heaping tablespoon of the mixture into the oil - this will be1 fritter. Add as many tablespoons to the oil at one time as you have room for in yourpan, without allowing fritters to touch or join together. Tip: Odd shapes are desirable -they needn't be perfect-looking fritters (see photo).7. Allow fritters to cook at least 1 minute before disturbing - or until they have a moresolid form - then gently turn them with your tongs or a spatula to fry the other side.Fritters are done when they're golden-brown on both sides. Remove from oil andallow to drain on an absorbent towel or paper.8. Continue cooking the fritters in batches until all the mixture is used up.9. Serve with Thai Sweet Chili Sauce for dipping (available in bottles at most grocerystore chains in the Asian section, or look for it at any Chinese/Asian food store). ENJOY!
