Ginataang Munggo (Monggo) is one of a kind Filipino delicacy. It can be eaten as a dessert and also perfect as merienda for Filipinos. This Filipino food is a combination of toasted munggo (mung beans) and malagkit (glutinous rice) cooked in coconut milk.
Ginataang Munggo is cooked like how Ginataang Mais is cooked except that the latter uses corn instead of mung beans.

I like ginaatang munggo as its both sweet and at the same time healthy.
One of my mama's favorite na lutuin at isa sam ga tinda nya nung when we were all young. We ids grew up with her small Karinderia. Sarap. i can still smell the fried/tinutong na munggo.

This ginataang munggo looks different from the one I am used to eating but it looks just as tasty.
Must be good to eat when it's raining or when the days are cold.
I think I'd rather have ginataang mais than this one. I've never really liked beans. 🙂
Must be very healthy, too!
Wow, ginataang munggo! Is this supposed to be a viand or snack like ginataang mais? This is interesting! 🙂
