Mung Bean And Green Apple Chaat

1. 1

   ["Soak the mung beans in at least 2 cups of water and let sit overnight. The next day, drain the beans. (They can be stored in the refrigerator for a few days.)", "Chop the tomato into very small chunks and transfer to a large bowl (you should have a little more than 1 cup).", "Peel the apple and chop into 1/8"" chunks, then transfer to the bowl (you should have about 1/3 cup).", "Add the remaining ingredients and toss to combine. Add salt if necessary (but it probably won't be because the chaat masala contains salt). Let stand for 10 minutes before serving to let the flavors mix.", "Divide the mixture among 4 plates, and top each one with about 1-2 tablespoons of the fried okra.", "Add the oil to a very small saucepan and heat to 350 F.", "Trim the tops off the okra, then slice them into very thin rounds.", "When the oil is hot, add half the okra. (Stand back - it may splatter and there will be lots of steam coming off the pan.) Cook until medium golden brown, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and season with salt while hot.", "Let the oil return to 350 and then repeat with the remaining okra.", "If not using immediately, store in a resealable plastic bag or airtight container. (These can be made up to two weeks in advance, just make sure that the container or bag is sealed well or the okra will get soft - I usually slice and fry the whole pint of okra so that I don't have to fry the okra each time I make chaat.)"]
