Stir-Fried Green Beans and Bean Sprouts Recipe

Ingredients :

225 g Green beans or snow peas 225 g Fresh bean sprouts 3-4 tablespoons Oil 1.5 teaspoons Salt 1 teaspoon Sugar

Method : Wash and trim the beans, shred if necessary. Wash and rinse the bean sprouts in a bowl of cold water and discard the husks and other bits and pieces that float to the surface. Remove the roots too if possible. Heat the oil in a hot wok or large frying pan and when it starts to smoke, swirl the wok so that its surface is well greased. Add the green beans first, stirring to make sure that each piece is well covered with oil, then the bean sprouts and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the salt and sugar. Continue stirring for about 1 minute at the most. Overcooking will turn both the green beans and bean sprouts into a soggy mass. Serve hot.
