Spiced Sprouts



Its a tradition to share sprouts as part of "Thamboolam".
After the puja i was left with so much of them.
Hence i've decided to spice it up and server for breakfast.

The other day we were at a dinner at my bro's place.
He brought this store brought sprouts. 
Mixture of them - green moong, chana and all that can be sprouted.
We've done a quick saute with green chillies, curry leaf and squeezed in lemon.
