Fried bean sprouts are a simple, flavorful dish commonly found in Asian cuisine, particularly Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese traditions. Made by sautéing fresh mung bean sprouts in a small amount of oil, often with garlic, scallions, and soy sauce for added taste, this dish highlights its natural crunch and mild, nutty flavor. Bean sprouts are rich in vitamins C and K, folate, and antioxidants, promoting immune health and aiding cell repair. They are also low in calories, making them a light and nutritious option. For added variety, some recipes include protein like tofu, egg, or shrimp. While generally healthy, the use of oil and sodium from seasonings can increase calorie and salt levels. Choosing low-sodium soy sauce and moderate oil use can keep this dish a wholesome addition to meals. Fried bean sprouts are a versatile, nutrient-packed side or main dish fit for many healthy diets.
