This stir-fired bean sprout with chili bean sauce dish is incredibly easy to make, and makes a wonderfully refreshing vegetable dish.
According to Grace Young, the author of
Stir-Frying to the Sky's Edge: The Ultimate Guide to Mastery, with Authentic Recipes and Stories, "when the weather's hot, it's important to eat more yin, or cooling vegetables like bean sprouts to restore balance to your body."
These sprouts are stir-fried with garlic, a sauce of Shao Hsing rice wine, soy sauce, and chili bean sauce. They also include a quarter cup each of julienned carrots and shredded scallions. Even after stir-frying, these sprouts are crisp and crunchy.
