Garlic Bean Sprout Stir-Fry

Ingredients

• 1 lb bean sprouts, rinsed and drained well
• 2 tbsp neutral oil
• 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 2 scallions, sliced
• to taste Sesame seeds (optional)

Method

1. Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat.
2. Sauté garlic 10–15 seconds until fragrant.
3. Add bean sprouts and stir-fry 2–3 minutes until hot but still crisp.
4. Add soy sauce, sesame oil, and salt; toss 30 seconds.
5. Top with scallions and sesame seeds.

Notes

Cook quickly—overcooking makes bean sprouts watery.
