Stir-fried bean sprouts are a simple yet flavorful dish originating from East and Southeast Asian cuisine. Made by quickly cooking fresh mung bean sprouts in a hot pan with minimal oil, this dish often includes aromatics like garlic, ginger, and green onions, along with optional additions of soy sauce, sesame oil, or chili. A popular side dish or topping for noodles and rice, it’s prized for its light, crunchy texture and its ability to complement a variety of flavors. Bean sprouts are nutrient-rich, containing vitamins C and K, folate, and antioxidants while being low in calories. They are also a great plant-based source of protein. Their high water content aids hydration, and dietary fiber supports digestion. However, care should be taken with food safety to ensure sprouts are thoroughly cooked, as raw sprouts may carry a risk of bacterial contamination.
