Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.

Instructions

  1. 1Soak the 1 cup of soybeans in enough water to cover them completely for at least 2 hours.
  2. 2After soaking, drain the 1 cup of soybeans thoroughly using a colander. Pat the drained soybeans completely dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
  3. 3Place a large pan on the stove and heat it over medium heat (approximately 162.8-176.7°C / 160-175°C). Add the dried 1 cup of soybeans to the hot pan and roast them, stirring frequently, for 15-20 minutes until they are crunchy and golden brown.
  4. 4In a medium mixing bowl, combine the roasted 1 cup of soybeans with the 0.5 medium finely chopped onion, 1 chopped green chili, 1 tsp minced ginger, 1 tbsp lemon juice, 0.25 tsp turmeric powder, and 0.5 tsp salt. Mix these ingredients thoroughly until well combined.
  5. 5In a small, heatproof pan, heat the 1 tbsp of mustard oil over high heat (approximately 204.4°C / 200°C) until it is smoking hot. Carefully pour the smoking hot 1 tbsp of mustard oil over the soybean mixture in the mixing bowl and mix everything well with a spoon.
  6. 6Serve the Gluten-Free Bhatmas Sadeko immediately as a savory snack or a side dish.
