Ingredients
- •400 g bean sprouts
- •3 green onions, cut into 5 cm pieces
- •1 tbsp fish sauce
- •1 tbsp neutral oil
- •1 tsp sugar
Directions
- 1Rinse the bean sprouts and drain them thoroughly. Any clinging water will steam them.
- 2Mix the fish sauce and sugar in a small bowl so it goes in as one addition.
- 3Heat the oil in a wok over the highest heat until it shimmers and moves freely.
- 4Add the bean sprouts and green onions and toss constantly for ninety seconds.
- 5Pour the sauce down the side of the wok and toss twice more.
- 6Tip onto a plate immediately.
💡 This is a two-minute dish and it does not wait. Sprouts left in a warm pan keep cooking and collapse into water.
