Step by Step guide
Step 1
Sort and rinse the mung beans. Soak in 1 liter of water for 8 hours.
Step 2
Without draining the water, bring the mung beans to a boil and cook until they start to soften, about 40 minutes.

Peel the ginger (about 5 cm), remove the seeds and membranes from the chili pepper. Cut the ginger and chili into thin strips and add to the soup along with the turmeric. Cook for another 10 minutes.
Step 4
Slice the onion into half rings and mince the garlic. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the onion and half of the minced garlic for 5–7 minutes. Add the cumin and sauté for another minute until the seeds change color.
Step 5
Cut the large tomato into medium cubes.
Step 6
Add the sautéed onion and garlic, tomato, salt, sugar, and the remaining garlic to the soup. Cook for another minute.
