Hopiang Monggo is a popular Filipino pastry filled with a sweetened mung bean paste. Originating from Chinese culinary influences, this soft, flaky treat is made using a combination of flour, sugar, vegetable oil, and cooked mung beans, which are mashed and seasoned to create the filling. Mung beans, the key ingredient, are a great source of protein, fiber, and essential nutrients such as potassium and magnesium, making the pastry a relatively wholesome snack. However, the sugar content and oil used in the preparation can affect its overall health value, especially for those monitoring their calorie intake. Typically enjoyed as a dessert or paired with tea, Hopiang Monggo offers a satisfying blend of textures and flavors that celebrate the unique fusion of cultures in Filipino cuisine. Moderation is advised when indulging in this delicious treat due to its high carbohydrate and fat content.
