Sweet Mung Beans

   There was a knock at the door... my neighbor had informed me that his wife had just finished making a huge batch of mung beans.  I was excited!  I gave him the biggest cup I had, and he came back shortly with it full of mung beans.
   Here in Indonesia, even though mung beans are a bean... and green... they are still traditionally prepared as a dessert.  So that means they are mixed with brown sugar, white sugar, a little ginger, some coconut milk, and other goodies.
   The result is pretty tasty.  It's sweet, but you're still eating a bunch of green beans, so I tell myself that it's healthy eating (kind of like when I eat oatmeal cookies or carrot cake).
