Soybean sprouts are firmer than regular bean sprouts made from mung beans. Find soybean sprouts at Chinese and Korean grocery stores.

Ingredients

12 oz  (375 g)  soybean sprout (about 6 cups/1.5 L)
4 oz  (125 g)  garlic chives or Chinese chives
2 tbsp  (30 mL)  peanut or vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 red hot pepper, seeded and julienned
1-1/2 tsp  (7 mL)  light  soy sauce or fish sauce, or 1/2 tsp/2 mL salt
Pinch granulated sugar

Preparation

Pinch roots from sprouts. Cut chives into soybean-sprout lengths.

In wok or skillet, heat oil over high heat; fry garlic and pepper until fragrant, 10 to 20 seconds. Add sprouts; stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add soy sauce, sugar and 2 tbsp/30 mL water; continue stir-frying, adding a little water if necessary to avoid scorching, until sprouts are tender, 3 to 4 minutes.

Stir in chives and stir-fry until wilted, 30 to 60 seconds.
