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
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the bean sprouts thoroughly under cold running water and allow them to drain completely.
Step 2
Peel and mince the garlic cloves. Thinly slice the green onions, separating the white and green parts.
Step 3
In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Step 4
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.
Step 5
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.
Step 6
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.
Step 7
Continue to cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Step 8
Remove from heat and garnish with the sliced green parts of the green onions.
Step 9
Serve immediately while hot for the best flavor and texture.
