===Uses===
Mung [[beans]] are commonly used in [[Chinese cuisine]], as well as in Japan, Korea, India, Thailand and Southeast Asia. They are generally eaten either whole (with or without skins) or as [[bean sprouts]], or used to make the dessert "green bean soup". The starch of mung [[beans]] is also extracted from them to make jellies and "transparent/cellophane" [[noodles]]. In Vietnam, the transparent wrapping of Vietnamese spring rolls is made from mung bean [[flour]]. In Filipino cuisine, [[meat]] is [[sauteed]] with [[Garlic|garlic]], [[onions]], and [[bay leaves]], then mung [[beans]] are added and cooked. Mung [[batter]] is used to make crepes named Pesarattu in Andhra Pradesh, India.

Whole mung [[beans]] are generally prepared from dried [[beans]] by boiling until they are soft. In Chinese cuisine, whole mung beans are used to make a tong sui, or dessert, otherwise literally translated, "sugar water", which is served either warm or chilled, and is considered an antidote to thirst. In Indonesia, they are made into a popular dessert snack called es kacang hijau, which has the consistency of a porridge. The beans are cooked with [[sugar]], [[coconut milk]], and a little [[ginger]]. Although whole mung beans are also occasionally used in Indian cuisine, beans without skins are more commonly used; but in Kerala, whole moong dal (cheru payaru) is commonly boiled to make a dry preparation that is often had with rice gruel (kanji). In the Philippines, it is the main ingredient of the dessert hopiang munggo.
