MUNGGONISA – Ginisang Munggo with Longganisang Macao

There are many names as there are versions of this dish. This is commonly called Ginisang Munggo or Sautéed Mung Beans or Mung Beans Stew. I call my version Munggo-nisa. Munggo came from mung beans and nisa, came from Longganisang Macao [Chinese sausage].
