Depending on the amount of mung beans you're cooking it can take between 20 to 30 minutes to cook the mung beans fully.

The mung beans will be fully cooked and ready to eat once the mung beans become tender.

The more mung beans you're cooking the longer it will take.

A small pot of mung beans should take around 20 minutes to cook while a larger pot of mung beans may take 30 to 40 minutes to cook.

Also you can eat raw mung beans.

Mung beans can be eaten either raw or cooked and they are healthy both ways.

Most people prefer to cook the mung beans before eating them because they are much easier to digest and much more enjoyable when cooked.

But if you want to eat raw mung beans it's okay to do so.

Both raw and mung beans are healthy and are high in folate, iron and protein which makes them healthy even for pregnant women as pregnant woman need more of those minerals and nutrients.

If you cook mung beans on the stove it takes around 30 to 40 minutes to fully cook them but in a slow cooker it can take 8 hours.
