Maash Polow - Rice with Mung Beans

Rice with mung beans (maash polow) is a delightful summer dish, light, simple and delicious. Usually, around the beginning of each summer, I go through my pantry and check the shelves for any kinds of grains, peas and beans that have been stored in jars, bags and containers and decide what to make with them so that they won't be left sitting on the shelves throughout the hot and humid summer
