SPROUTED FENUGREEK SEEDS TAMBULI
It is very easy to make fenugreek seeds sprout at home. I’m very fond of making whole green gram sprouts and fenugreek seeds sprout and use them in many ways. Every now and then I make sprouts using either of them and put it in regular huli (sambar), gojju(tangy curry), tambuli, rotti etc. I have posted menthyada sihi huggi/sprouted fenugreek seeds sweet pongal recipe here on my blog and hesarukalu (whole green gram) pongal as well. And today I’m going to post our malenadu (my native) special tambuli recipe.

When you soak 1 tsp of fenugreek seeds, it becomes 2 tbsp in quantity once it sprouts ! I normally soak a tsp of fenugreek seeds in enough water in the morning around 10 am and drain all the water around 10 pm at night, cover and keep it in a warm place, by next morning you can see it sprouting
