Prepare the Beans

Rinse the dried mung beans or red beans under cold water.

In a medium pot, combine the beans with 4 cups of water.

Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the beans are tender, about 30-40 minutes. If using red beans, they may take longer to cook.

Drain the beans and set aside.

Prepare the Tapioca Pearls

In a separate pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil.

Add the tapioca pearls and cook until they become translucent, about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

Drain the tapioca pearls and rinse under cold water to remove excess starch. Set aside.

Combine Ingredients

In a large pot, combine the cooked beans, cooked tapioca pearls, coconut milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar.

Cook for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Serve

Ladle the Che into serving bowls.
