Categories     Vegetable     Healthy

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

• 3 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
• 4 large eggs
• 6 to 8 scallions
• 1-inch piece ginger root
• 2 medium cloves garlic
• 12 ounces shredded vegetables or prepared slaw mix (from the produce department)
• 2 cups mung bean sprouts
• 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 1/2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce

Steps:

  • Heat a teaspoon of the oil in a wok or large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lightly beat the 4 eggs in a liquid measuring cup. Pour into the skillet and stir for 1 to 2 minutes, or just until the eggs are set. Transfer to a bowl. Wipe out the wok or skillet and add the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil over medium heat. Trim the scallions and cut them on the diagonal into thin slices. Peel and mince the ginger to yield a tablespoon. Mince the garlic to yield 2 teaspoons. Add the ginger and garlic to the wok or skillet; stir-fry for 1 minute, then add the shredded vegetables or slaw mix, the mung bean sprouts, half of the scallions, the soy sauce and the vinegar; stir to combine, then cover and cook for about 3 minutes, stirring once or twice. Add the hoisin sauce and return the eggs to the wok or skillet, stirring to break them up and incorporate them into the vegetables; this should take about 2 minutes. Stir in the remaining scallions.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients in advance: Slicing and dicing your vegetables and measuring out your ingredients ahead of time will make the cooking process much smoother and faster.
  • Use a large skillet or wok: A large cooking surface will allow you to easily stir-fry the vegetables without overcrowding them.
  • Cook the vegetables in batches if necessary: If you're using a lot of vegetables, you may need to cook them in batches to avoid overcrowding the skillet or wok.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: Moo shu vegetables should be crisp-tender, so be careful not to overcook them.
  • Add the sauce last: Adding the sauce at the end of the cooking process will help to preserve its flavor and prevent it from burning.
  • Serve immediately: Moo shu vegetables are best served immediately, while they're still hot and crispy.
