STIR-FRIED BEAN SPROUTS WITH SPROUTED BROWN RICE



Stir-Fried Bean Sprouts With Sprouted Brown Rice image

The sprouts I find most often at the supermarket are mung bean sprouts. But lately I've also found pea sprouts, which are more delicate and have a delicious fresh flavor. The stir-fry time is much shorter for pea sprouts, about one to two minutes total.

Time 50m

Yield Serves three to four

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup sprouted brown rice, cooked 3 cups cooked rice
1 tablespoon soy sauce low-sodium if desired
1 tablespoon Shao Hsing rice wine or dry sherry
2 teaspoons dark Asian sesame oil
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper, preferably white pepper
1/4 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons peanut oil or canola oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1 medium red bell pepper, cut in 1/4-inch-by-2-inch matchsticks 1 cup julienne
4 cups bean sprouts about 3/4 pound
1/4 cup thinly sliced scallions
1/4 cup coarsely chopped cilantro (optional)

Steps:

  • Cook the brown rice, and keep warm. It takes about 40 minutes to cook, so while it's simmering you can prepare your ingredients for the stir-fry.
  • In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine the soy sauce, rice wine or sherry, and the sesame oil. Combine the salt, pepper and sugar in another small bowl. Have all the ingredients within arm's length of your pan.
  • Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or 12-inch steel skillet over high heat until a drop of water quickly evaporates in the pan. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil to the sides of the pan and tilt the pan to distribute. Add the garlic and ginger, and stir-fry for no more than 10 seconds. Add the red pepper, and stir-fry for one minute, then add the bean sprouts and scallions. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds. Add the salt, pepper and sugar. Toss together, and add the soy sauce mixture. Stir-fry for one to two minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender. Stir in the cilantro, and serve with the rice.

Tips:

  • Choose the right type of rice: Day-old rice works best for fried rice as it is less sticky.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok: A well-seasoned wok will help prevent the rice from sticking.
  • Cook the rice in small batches: This will help prevent the rice from clumping together.
  • Use high heat: High heat will help create the characteristic wok hei (breath of the wok) flavor.
  • Add the ingredients in the correct order: The order in which you add the ingredients is important to ensure that the rice is cooked evenly and the vegetables are not overcooked.
  • Use a light touch: When stirring the rice, use a light touch to prevent the rice from breaking up.
  • Serve immediately: Fried rice is best served immediately after cooking.
