Ingredients

- water - watch the video to see (enough to cover the Fenugreek powder in a bowl)
Instructions
- Cleaning and Drying Fenugreek: Filter raw Fenugreek to remove dirt. Wash quickly with minimal water and let it dry completely in a non-sticky bowl.
- Powdering Fenugreek: Once dried, powder the Fenugreek using a specific powdering machine and store it in a glass-like bowl to avoid spoilage.
- Preparing Mabonqol: Wash and dry the Fenugreek, then let it grow slightly for about 12 hours in a clean bowl with ample sunlight. Dry completely before powdering.
- Making the Drink: Gradually mix Fenugreek powder with water in a bowl. Let it settle for 6 to 12 hours without moving it.
- Finalizing the Drink: After waiting, remove the water on top and mix the settled powder. Use a stirring machine to achieve the desired thickness.
