Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams bean sprouts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 medium fresh garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 2 stalks green onions
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the bean sprouts thoroughly under cold running water and allow them to drain completely.
Peel and mince the garlic cloves. Thinly slice the green onions, separating the white and green parts.
In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and the white parts of the green onions to the skillet. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes or until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Increase the heat to high and add the bean sprouts to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the bean sprouts are tender-crisp.
Reduce the heat to medium and stir in the coconut aminos, sesame oil, red chili flakes, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to coat the bean sprouts evenly.
Continue to cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Remove from heat and garnish with the sliced green parts of the green onions.
Serve immediately while hot for the best flavor and texture.
