Peel, wash and finely chop onion. Wash and chop tomato. Wash, halve, deseed and chop capsicum. Remove stems, wash and finely chop green chillies. Peel, wash and grate raw mango.
Mix sprouted moong and mauth with onion, capsicum, tomato, green chillies, roasted cumin seeds, red chilli powder, amchur powder, grated raw mango and oil.
Mix lemon juice, chaat masala and salt and pour over salad. Mix well and serve immediately.
