About Monggo soup
Monggo Soup, a staple in Filipino cuisine, is a hearty dish made primarily from mung beans, which are rich in protein, fiber, and essential nutrients like folate and iron. Typically, the soup includes garlic, onions, tomatoes, and malunggay (moringa leaves) or spinach, adding layers of flavor and a boost of vitamins. Some variations incorporate pork, shrimp, or chicharrón for added richness, though these ingredients increase calorie and fat content. The soup is often seasoned with fish sauce and sometimes coconut milk, balancing savory and creamy flavors. Its high fiber content supports digestion, while the abundance of vegetables provides antioxidants and vitamins. While generally nutritious, those watching their sodium intake should take note of the fish sauce commonly used. Monggo Soup is comforting, economical, and adaptable, making it a beloved and health-conscious dish across the Philippines.
