It's Friday again and it's Monggo Day! I don't know how they relate this dish into this particular day of the week and paired with fried fish.

Some used to cook monggo or mung beans by boiling the beans together with pork bones to add flavor but I used chicharon in this recipe.

This is simple to cook but need lots of time since you need to boil the monggo beans until soften or mushy. You may soak the monggo beans for 5 hours to overnight to lessen the boiling time.

But just a reminder, although this dish is savory, a person with high uric acid must be taken this into moderation because mungbean or monggo is high in uric acid.
