Easy Stir Fry Beansprouts

Beansprouts, a cheap & delicious veggie. For as cheap as $0.30 u can get a handful of these healthy veggie as it onli costs $1.30 per kg.

Well, i dunno usually order tis dish when i was eating out cuz for such a cheap veggie, its not worth to pay for a few dollars for a small plate at coffee shop or restaurant. Erm...i would prefer to cook my version where i get to add ingredients i like, unlike those at hawker where they usually fry with tau kua or salted fish.

To determine how delicious beansprouts taste, there r certain points to look out for. 1stly, choose short & fat beansprouts (thin & long aren't as nice). 2ndly, remove tail, always soak in water for at least 15mins b4 draining. 3rdly, do not cook for too long as it will lose its crunchiness & minerals.

250g beansprouts
1 small fish cake, cut into strips
5 cherry tomatoes, halved
1 stalk spring onion, cut into 3cm length
1 clove garlic, minced
1 red chili
Pinch of salt
Oil for frying

Method;
-Fry garlic with 1/2 tsp oil till lightly browned.
